I installed Gallery 2.0.1, but didn't have time to test the install until a few hours later. I had, of course, forgotten the admin password. How can I reset this? I tried to clear the password in the user database, but Gallery requires a password to be entered on the login page.

For now, I'm just going to reinstall, but it would be nice to know how to do this for the future.

Thanks!

yep, after playing with the db without knowing what you did :) it's better to just reinstall in this case (nothing to lose).

but there's the "lost password" mechanism... in the lost password page text, there's also a link for admins.

yep, didn't see that the first time around. Very cool setup!
