There was a database error. Please try again. When using RESET WITH QUESTIONS #2

I got the ADReset up and running. But I encountered an error when using the RESET WITH QUESTIONS, after entered a username, it came up error 'There was a database error. Please try again'.

All Q&A and done. Database is connected. I even tried on both Windows Server and UBUNTU platform. The result is the same.

Got any ideas???

Unfortunately, I'm fairly busy these days but I'll try to get around to troubleshooting this soon.

I'm also hoping that in the relatively near future I'll have time to rewrite this app using more modern web technology.

What versions of Windows Server are the Domain Controllers you are configuring ADReset to use?

FYI, I'm in the process of rewriting the app to use modern web technology at: https://github.com/mprahl/ADReset2

It won't be backwards compatible but it should have feature parity. Also, it'd be helpful if you let me know what browser requirements you have while I rewrite the app.

thanks for the reply. I'm using Windows 2012 R2.

Browsing requirements: Google Chrome, Firefox and IE

@jttalasan what version of IE do you require? Would IE9+ be ok?

cloudcap10 commented 6 years ago

yes IE9+ would be ok.

Thanks Matt.

Hi Matt,

Its been a year our adreset has running. We have additional 3 domains, how can it be done using existing code?

thanks

It's a bug, but since I'm rewriting this application in the ADReset2 repo, I'll only provide a workaround. The issue is that the code checks to see what the configured value is for "Failed Reset Attempts Allowed". After just installing it, this value is not set by default.

To set this, you need to:
