A reader contact me, asking a guide about recover forgotten password on his newly installed Joomla CMS.
I agree to help him. As usual I try to reproduce it in step by step.
Forgot Your Password
Common procedure for user who forgot their password is as follow :
Click link “Forgot your password”
User will see a form where he/she must supply email address in input box.
Click Submit to proceed.
This problem came when no email server installed.
Could not instantiate mail function.
Quick Solution : Install Email Server
Make sure you check if all services running, simplest way to do that via command prompt.
