dsdsdsdsd Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 hello. I am installing a joomla site on a client server. So far the site works fine on my local machine, fine on my hosted development server. The specific problem I am having is that when I attempt to login to the joomla administrator, my un/pw fail, but I can see in the database that the un/pw are there ... BUT the pw is encrypted. So I was thinking that maybe on my server's php install that when a password is encrypted, maybe it uses encryption-algorithm-AAA, which checks positive against the database value, BUT on the client's server maybe a encryption-algorithm-BBB is being used, and thus checks false against the stored AAA-generated value. any thoughts? thanks, Shannon Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/265210-do-different-php-installs-handle-password-encryption-differently/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyph Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Generally, a well hashed password will use system-specific information when hashing.
