Sarah Arrindell Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I was logged in this morning and all of a sudden I was logged out. I receive a message that my account is suspended but when I login as Admin it is indeed active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 @Sarah Arrindell I moved your post here (System Administration) as it is not a "Switch On" related query/issue... I'll have a look and get back to you shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 @Sarah Arrindell if a user tries to log in several times unsuccessfully, the account gets temporarily suspended. Is your account still suspended, does the issue still occur? The events logs show the system was unable to validate the credentials which indicates a wrong username and/or password...

Sarah Arrindell Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 My username is SArrindell and I had changed my password to see if that was the issue but it didn't work. Maybe it wasn't saving my new password. I have just reset it again and now it is working!!! Did you do anything? I was getting a mismatch earlier. It kept saying I was suspended when I wasn't.

Sarah Arrindell Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 I found the issue. My colleagues account had my username in their email field. I am now able to login to all sites (service, admin and live) Thank you for your fast response. S x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think I did. I did reset his password. Weird but I guess we can put this down to user error :-) x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then this is what I have seen in the logs happening at 09:30 this morning and this is why the authentication failed... My bad I misread the log entry I thought the changes were made on your account but not his/her (amancini) 12 minutes ago, Sarah Arrindell said: I found the issue.

Victor Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 @Michael Wrightson I have sent you a PM where I explained where the issue is. EDIT: for anyone reading this, the issue was caused by multiple users sharing the same email address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
