puspus Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Why suddenly I am unable to login to Hestia? I tried using this command through SSH: v-change-user-password admin [new_password] and it says permission denied. Error: user admin doesn't exist Sudo won't work either (command not found). What should I do? Thank you.

Krydos Posted February 14 Posted February 14 I tested your SSH account and it works fine for me puspusssh@vps118:~$ which sudo /usr/bin/sudo puspusssh@vps118:~$ sudo su [sudo] password for puspusssh: root@vps118:/home/puspusssh# exit puspusssh@vps118:~$ sudo /usr/local/hestia/bin/v-change-user-password admin newpassword puspusssh@vps118:~$ I didn't leave the password as "newpassword" though because it is very insecure. Which SSH account are you logging in to? I see you have an FTP account too. If you login to that account via SSH it might not have sudo privileges.
puspus Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 @Ookma-Kyi Result: /usr/bin/sudo @Krydos Thank you! I did not not use the complete path for the command. My bad. Now I can login. But I still wonder why admin login suddenly failed.
