can always edit the database directly.
It sounds like a cookie problem, though. Try setting the cookie domain
explicitly in your settings.php file to just example.com (not www.example.com,
or whatever).
Also, check to make sure that uid 0 is still intact in the database.
That's another common source of weirdness, in my experience.

Hi,
Is there a backdoor way to force admin login if everything fails?
Something like the way $update_free_access is changed to TRUE to allow
running update.php....?
A client got locked out of D6.15 completely, including admin. Login
seems to work (I see admin only links on logon), cookies are set, but
only on the initial page.... any subsequent click is treated as done by
an anonymous user (checked the watchdog this way). I've cleared all
browser caches, Drupal caches via the db, also the Drupal sessions
table, checked the cookie domain, the admin user record exists in the
user table, etc. in settings.php, deleted and re-uploaded D6.15.
Nothing in the php logs. Nothing unusual in watchdog - just access
denied by anonymous... Spent an equivalent of a day on this but I know
there is a ton of things I can still try - e.g. rebuild access rights.
But I do need to log in first, only by myself. So... is there a way to
force admin login? Cannot find this info anywhere.
Thanks!
