[TYPO3-UG UK] Help - Special characters

[Edmund Huggett]

Hi,

if you insert the following line at the very _end_ of your localconf.php 
your password will be reset to the default of joh316

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['installToolPassword'] = 
'bacb98acf97e0b6112b1d1b650b84971';

Of course, it goes without saying that you should change the install 
tool password as soon as you have logged in.

Hope this is what you needed

Regards

Edmund
