Master Password Stopped Working

[voltage]

The encrypted master password mod stopped working on my 1.3 shop. I reinstalled it (just one file) and nothing. I created a new account as a customer and was able to login and out fine, so at least my customers are able to login. I reset my admin password but it still doesn't work (the login screen just refreshes, no errors or anything.)

Any thoughts?

What "encrypted master password mod" you use?

Maybe the admin ID has changed? (if it's the mod I think it is, the default expects admin ID to be 1)

In my module admin IP may changed.

It was a problem with Ultimate SEO mod. It temporarily was causing ALL passwords not to work, not just this one. I have it fixed though. Thanks for the replies.

I have a small problem, too. I hope it is ok that i use this thread to ask my question.

I installed the contribution. Now, I'm trying to set a master password and get the response: The Password Confirmation must match your new Password (i entered both times the same password).

My admin password is different than the master password i wanted to set. coud that be a problem?

Any ideas.

Thanks a lot.

No, your master password can (and probably should) be different from your admin password. I am not sure what the problem is, but that isn't it... I imagine you figured that out by now and it would be GREAT if you can post a fix here so others can learn.

I had master password installed and installed another mod which wrote to the header_php.php file and that will stop the master password from working. This fix is as easy as:
Compare the master password header and the header of the most recent mod and merge them. The master password info is clearly commented in the header file.
