How do I unlock the Plesk Admin user if it’s been locked?

by on Jan.27, 2009, under Linux, Windows

Plesk will lock you for 30 minutes if you enter your password incorrectly 3 times.

In Windows, to remove this lock, run the following:

C:>“Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\MySQL\binmysql.exe” -u admin -p -P8306 -D psa -e “DELETE FROM lockout”
Enter password: *********

C:>

In Linux, run the following:

[root@plesk]# mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` psa -e ‘DELETE FROM lockout’
