I misunderstood the site setting for Change Login Page. I thought I could move it to just one page. It changed the login page to be a page on my site. Now I can't login to fix it. Please help!!!! My husband is a programmer but is away. -Kelly

Hi All,

It turns out the step I failed to do was give the "All Users" group read access to my new login tab.  Had I done that in the first place, I probably would not have had any problems.  I am not sure why nulling out the LoginTabId field of my portal's record in the Portal table did not immediately send me back to the core DNN login page.  But the following morning I was able to get access back to my site.  I guess there is some kind of caching going on.  Just for good measure, I gave "All Users" read access to my new login tab and changed my site login page setting to this new tab and logged out.  When I logged back in, I did get redirected to my new tab.

Anyhow, I hope this helps someone else out there.

Try this first add ctl=login to the URL.  eg www.dotnetuke.com/default.aspx?ctl=login .

If that doesnt work then what you eed to do is gain access to your database and update the LoginTabID in the Portals table and set it to NULL.  Then open the web.config file (you'll need server access or FTP) make a minor change like adding nd removing a space.  Then reload the web.config.  This will cause the site to restart and as such dump any cached values and you should be able to access you login.
