Regarding the login issue - there is an FAQ in the manual that may help with this: How to change Koha default user name and password? Is your operating system windows? * Open a command prompt and type: cd \mysql\bin * Type: mysqladmin -u koha -p password YourNewPasswordHere * You will be prompted for the current password which is "koha" The above action will reset the mysql password. Open the C:\etc\koha.conf and set the new password in the pass=koha line.

Using Koha 3.0.0 on Linux.
We had trouble with a failed file - you sent us some advice to use gedit, and we recovered this file. Unfortunately, another problem has arisen - cannot log into "kohadbuser" because of too many authentication failures - the exact message reads "Access denied for 127.0.0.1. The host has been blocked because of too many authentication failures." Also cannot log into kohaadmin. "" WE CAN LOG INTO KOHADMIN. Apologies for this wrong information - Caramel""
The question is how can we retrieve the passwords?
At the same time we can't log into the local hosts.
I hope this is not too many problems for you to solve...
