I can not log into my admin section I keep getting this error message:

Quote:
http://mysite.com/administrator/index.php?mosmsg=Admin%20Session%20Expired


I have read about jos_session I have tried to repair it from myphpadmin and that did not work....My next option is to drop the table and create a new one, however I do not know how to create a new one...Can anyone tell me how to go about creating a new one...or is their another solution?

thanks alot

You could try to delete the records relating to your session from the session table. Replace my_db and my_username with the name of your database and your username:
Code:
DELETE FROM `my_db`.`jos_session`
WHERE username = 'my_username'

Did you get an error message when you tried to repair it? If yes, try again and post the message here.

Regards,

the repair msg is successful but nothing changes
I also uploaded the patch and that didn't work either
Code:
Your SQL query has been executed successfully
REPAIR TABLE `jos_session`
[ Edit ] [ Create PHP Code ]

Show BINARY
Show BLOB
Hide Browser transformation
Table    Op    Msg_type    Msg_text
all0722612035670.jos_session    repair    status    OK


Query results operations Print view

I tried deleting records relating to my session but nothing changes.

Replace my_db and my_username with the name of your database and your username:- I do not know where to find these i am looking everywhere in myphadmin and i cant find anything

According to your repair messages the name of the database is all0722612035670. Your username is the username you used when you tried unsuccessfully to login to the Administrator folder.

connect to you ftp find the configuration. php file and change the session times to 1000 thats what I did and solved the problem....so simple but i only tried that after I backed up the site and lost 300 + members and content I and members added since November...
