Can't log into my user account

We have set up an admin account and a user account for each user. As I set up the admin account first, whenever I go into Trac it automatically logs me into the admin account so I cannot see my own user account. I’m using Safari OS X. I tried deleting all cookies and the cache. If I log in using Firefox I can log into my user account but then I can’t get to the admin account.

That’s because the Trac authentication works in 2 – its session based, and uses Basic Auth as well. What you’ll need to do is clear out your browser’s authentication cache (not the cookies). In Firefox, go to Tools -> Clear Private Data (Ctrl+Shift+Del) and then only ensure that Authenticated Sessions is checked. Then try logging in.

Figured out the problem. The password is stored in the Key chain. There’s a key chain manager in Applications/Utilities and it needs to be changed there

Awesome :) Hopefully that’ll help other OS X users
