Drupal

After a long day of work and more work I decided to do a little more work and was in the middle of some web development on a new client's site. I was NOT able to access the back end as user1.
The problem was not the username that I was provided, I know it was fine because I could see the name in the database table. It was the password that was giving me trouble....

I spent the last hour trying to get that little Flickr to work. It was a nightmare... Hopefully someone will come across this blog and find their solution much, much faster than I did.

The problem:
The user id
I got all kinds of errors no matter what I tired.
error 1 user not found
error 2 undefined or something unknown...

The solution:

It was quite a day today. I was able to dedicate 8 hours to website development and it was really quite fun. I have not spent that much time working on a project for someone else all in one sitting before. Here's what I noticed.

Let's see how it works. If I want to start blogging, I am going to have to find an easy way to do it because... well... I am all about the path of least resistance. So let's see if this works...
... now I post ...

It worked...

1. Install the Google Toolbar
2. Go to a website (i.e. http://www.wallstreetoasis.com)
