I'm new to E-Blah and am trying to set up a new forum.  Don't have much experience and I seem to get myself into trouble.  

I put my forum on maintenance and did not set a key.  Looks like I'm locked out.  Can I fix this by restoring from my back?  If so how do I do this,

I am using E=Blah 10.3.5

Thanks

Just download and edit Settings.pl and change:

$maintance = 1;

to:

$maintance = 0;

then reupload.

Thanks you for your prompt reply

I tried downloading Settings.pl and changed the setting to 0 and I'm still locked out.   Any other suggestions?

The board says I am currently logged in as admin but keeps referring to the password screen when I try to do anything.
