I did the 4.5.4 to 4.5.5 update on my test site last night and it went extremely smooth, only had one file I had to patch manually.

If it's just the admin, then no worries. The moment I have to tell my customers they must change their passwords, I will get very pissy.

This password thing was an option in previous versions.... I too don't see the need to hard code it.

You do know it is not mandatory to upgrade every time new version is out

It is for admin side only. This new security feature can be disabled for customers side.

This is a part of security improvements introduced in 4.5.5.
"Weak" passwords are not suitable for admin/provider accounts now.

There is still an option to enable/disable such feature, but it only affects customer accounts.

p.s. Simply increasing a password length from 6 to 7 characters you increase password discovery time by about 100 times.
You can refer to the following page for more info:

Broken down - biggest mistake I ever made to upgrade this thing, I'll pay $$$ to get this running again.

12 hours later...

Took the whole thing back to 4.5.4. Made sure all files were stock. Re-upgraded, no files in question this time. But...locked out as admin again. Manually applied patch.sql line by line. Removed cache files. Removed cookies, removed cache. Sends me a link to restore my login, that sends me to the customer front end. Try to re-do the password, supposedly works but then locked out again.

Paid $139 for the "Hot Rush". There is a guy giving me advice bits and pieces, I feel like I'm in school, it seems they don't want to go in there and directly fix it. I'm back to square one - completely locked out as admin, my store is closed, and probably will lose $1k-$2k in sales because of this.


This experience sucks, there's something wrong here because I've been doing this for 10 years with x-cart and have never got stuck like I have this time.

Could anyone here with a working copy of 4.5.5 please take a look at their "xcart_xauth_user_ids" table and see the structure? Mine only shows 5 columns, does yours have more?

Really not please here....
