problem loggin in wiki.ubuntu.com

Asked by Walther Seidel

Hi I have a problem loggin in to my account on wiki.ubuntu.com since the last time I edited my page on the site I spend a time too large to reenter and edit it again, when I clicked on "log in to edit" it takes me by surprise now wiki it's integrated to launchpad, just i have to log in to launchpad and it's done, but here it's when my probmen begin.

i enter my LP username and it askme for my old user on wiki that is WaSeidel I enter the user and my old password (note: i just use this password before, and use this only password for everything), and try all the passwords that I have used since I created my User on the wiki, but nothing happens, i joined to #launchpad and #ubuntu-website on freenode but nobody's can help me.

note: i'm not trying to stole the user if you wanna verify that i'm the owner of this user go to

Try going to login.launchpad.net and selecting "I've forgotten my password".

thanks Aaron, but when i do that it send me a recovery but from
launchpad and it doesn't have any problem, the problem it's with the

Hi Walther,

When you attempt to login to the wiki, if you are presented with an OpenID login with your email address already populated, please click "I'm someone else".

At the next page ensure you use your preferred email address in Launchpad (the one at cabuntu.org) and enter your LP password.

Let me know if that works ... or doesn't.

When the OpenID authentication screen comes up, do you enter the email address associated with your Launchpad account and your Launchpad password?

Hi Walther,

Another suggestion is that you remove all cookies from your browser related to ubuntu.com. Could you try that and see if it helps?

So, to be clear, you can log in to Launchpad, but not the wiki?

Michael thats it as siple as you describe...

It may be simple to state, but I don't have any idea for useful advice. Things that have caused problems in this area before are "funny" characters in email addresses or names but you don't seem to have any of those. Can you post a screenshot of what happens after you click "sign in" on the login.launchpad.net page?

Sorry that this is proving so difficult :(

Hi Walther,

I have assigned this question to the Canonical Support team, as they handle many of the issues that cross the boundary between the Launchpad and Ubuntu services, like our login server.

Scratch that last comment. This question should be assigned to the ISD team. Support does not handle login issues.

Hi Walther,

Did you merge your account recently? From the screenshots that you posted, it's clear that the Launchpad authentication worked. The "already registered" message comes from Moin, it's probable that the openid identifier associated with your LP user isn't the one associated with the Moin profile. The password that moins ask you to enter would be the Moin password, but since there is no Moin password (wiki.ubuntu.com only uses OpenID identification), that step is a sure failure.

So the OpenID identifier could have changed if you created a new account and merge your previous one (that was tied to the Moin account) into it.

To recover, it probably needs surgery of the Moin user database. Ask a wiki administrator if they can remove the OpenId association in that account (on the Moin side).

sorry i was very lost from my problem, but now i have to update my info on wiki.ubuntu.com and i found the problem was not solved, and i was forgot, i just want to keep trying to solve because my LP account allow me to use a new user but at the time that i log out and log in i lost the user as an example the las editor from my wiki was WaSeidel|tmp a temporary user that i created to edit like a "workaround" that you can call

I think the answer that Francis give to me is the right one but i don't know how to contact a wiki administrator, that should be the right answer for this thread.

PD: if my englis was a little bad it's because i'm a spanish speaker

This issue is likely to be fixed by an upcoming wiki upgrade. Until then, leaving this open.

T can be easy to kingdom, however I have no concept for beneficial recommendation. Things that have prompted problems in this location before are "humorous" characters in electronic mail addresses or names however you don't appear to have any of those. you can see here https://camplively.com/

Can you help with this problem?
