Forgot Drupal 7 site administrator password

But first, you have to generate a password hash that is valid for your site.
Execute the following commands from the command line, in the Drupal root directory:
or for Windows:
The script will output a password hash that is valid for the site. Copy this to the clipboard or write it down somewhere; you'll need it for the next step. Be careful not to include more or less characters as the hash. These hashes look somewhat like
Then execute the following query on the Drupal database:
To execute this query it will be necessary to login to the database.
This is typically done through the command line or through a GUI
interface such as phpMyAdmin.
This flood table records username and ip which has failed login attempts.
Anything that follows the double-dash will be passed to password-hash.sh.

When, in Drupal 7, the password for user 1 (the administrator) is lost and the email notification or drush methods don't work, it is possible to set the password via a database query.Edited by LeeHunter, batigolix, emag, negativefix. Log in to edit this page.
But first, you have to generate a password hash that is valid for your site.
Execute the following commands from the command line, in the Drupal root directory:
./scripts/password-hash.sh newpwd
or for Windows:
php .\scripts\password-hash.sh newpwd
NOTE: If you receive an error that PHP is not a recognized command then you need to add php to the system PATH. For example: ;c:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.8\ . This will then work in the Command Prompt. Once completed right click in Command Prompt window to mark the text and copy the hash code.Of course, change "newpwd" to the desired password. If the password contains special characters such as a space, * or ? you must escape them, or wrap the password in quotes appropriate for the shell used.
The script will output a password hash that is valid for the site. Copy this to the clipboard or write it down somewhere; you'll need it for the next step. Be careful not to include more or less characters as the hash. These hashes look somewhat like
$S$CTo9G7Lx28rzCfpn4WB2hUlknDKv6QTqHaf82WLbhPT2K5TzKzML
Then execute the following query on the Drupal database:
UPDATE users SET pass ='$S$CTo9G7Lx28rzCfpn4WB2hUlknDKv6QTqHaf82WLbhPT2K5TzKzML' WHERE uid = 1;
Clear flood table
If you have reset password either by using script or "request new password" but still receive "Sorry, there have been more than 5 failed login attempts for this account. It is temporarily blocked." then you may delete the corresponding entry in flood table.This flood table records username and ip which has failed login attempts.
Reset using a PHP-file
No command-line access? You can reset the password using a PHP-file as well, but keep in mind that this opens a arises a huge security issue if not handled correctly.Pass root param
If you're on windows and you want to pass the root param to the script, you'll need this:php -f password-hash.sh -- --root "C:\wamp\www\" newp@ss
