Which version of phpBB are you are using? The reason I'm asking is that would be outdated config.php but that doesn't necessarily mean phpBB is not up to date. Current version looks like this and should work correctly on most installations, note I commented out /file and added line for memcached:But I am curious: Even though I indicated $acm_type = 'memcached'
Code:
<?php// phpBB 3.3.x auto-generated configuration file// Do not change anything in this file!$dbms = 'phpbb\\db\\driver\\mysqli';$dbhost = '';$dbport = '';$dbname = '';$dbuser = '';$dbpasswd = '';$table_prefix = 'phpbb_';$phpbb_adm_relative_path = 'adm/';//$acm_type = 'phpbb\\cache\\driver\\file';$acm_type = 'phpbb\\cache\\driver\\memcached';@define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);@define('PHPBB_ENVIRONMENT', 'production');// @define('DEBUG_CONTAINER', true);
Non functioning passwords is usually because the php version was reverted to older version or something changed with php configuration. phpBB will update the hashed passwords stored in DB as users login if a better hashing algo is available. If you revert the php version to older one that doesn't support that algo then the passwords will no longer work.And I faced another issue, with user passwords. When restored DB from 10.3.35-MariaDB to MySQL 8.4, neither one user password, including mine, works
