# Collect login fails after update from 3.26

Asked by Fehrmann on 2020-11-03

Dear all,
after updating Collect (from 3.26.0) to the current version today (03/11/2020) I see a nice new login screen that I am not able to bypass. The "traditional" login with "admin" "admin" fails (in 3.26. this was my login and it always worked). The problem persits after completely removing Collect and re-installing.
Does anyone have a clue how to solve this?

Thank you,
Lutz

Dear Lutz,  
This is because we have changed the default "admin" user password into "Collect123", to avoid complaints from Google Chrome (see this question: http://www.openforis.org/support/questions/2889/open-foris-collect-error-message-a-data-breach-on-a-site-or-app-exposed-your-password-chrome-recommends-changing-your-password-on-localhost8380-now).  
Sorry for having caused troubles to you.  
We will make the admin user automatically login into Collect in the next release (3.26.26).  
Many thanks,  
Open Foris Team
