Unable to use old password after I send "forgot password" -- I suspect, the "forgot password" is directly changing the current password. So this does not cater to a situation where I send "forgot password" and then I suddenly remember the password and therefore want to use the older password itself.
The problem I faced is that there is an additional issue in my installation: It actually does not send an email for forgot password (That's a separate thread of investigation) so I now am completely locked out! I suspect this is what happened; in sequence:
- I thought I had forgotten the password, so I initiated the "forgot password"
- Internally, it reset the password and attempted to send me an email which I did not get
- I remembered the old password, but I can no longer login because the password actually has been reset
- I am totally stuck as I never received the "forgot password" email!!
