Just had this error from my Mahara installation and ive no idea why.  I haven't changed anything on the site and now cant seem to logon

Is there a way to get to the admin username and pass in the database?

It basically seems to have locked itsself

Hi Paul,

If you've locked out your admin account, you can reset your password with a simple SQL query:

UPDATE usr SET password='temporarypassword', passwordchange=1 WHERE username = 'admin';

Note 1: Use a sensible and random enough temporary password.

Note 2: This will not work on Mahara 1.4 and beyond.
