Issue with my account

Post by Toasterkitten »

I'm new to this forum so I don't know if this is the correct spot for this.
I recently setup Folding@home but I wasn't able to get my password yesterday so I reset it, it said the reset was successful but when I tried to sign in, it says "DB:1644: Invalid password". I have tried both my old and new password, reset multiple times and everything says the same thing, is there anyway I can get my account back?

Make sure that your are not mixing everything (passkey, usenrame, email used to get the passkey, account email, account passphrase/password) : https://foldingathome.org/guides/v8-5-client-guide/

Yeah, just checked, everything is using the same email and I'm trying to use my password to sign-in not the passkey, just tried resetting and copying the exact same password I typed into the reset forum into the sign-in page but still, it said invalid password.

Are the validation emails getting through to you?

Not sure what you mean by validation emails but if you mean the reset emails then yeah, I'm getting them.
