Launchpad itself

Can't access my account

Asked by Christoph Reiter on 2012-06-16

I logged into my account and ended up with this one.

Problem is, this isn't mine, I use https://launchpad.net/~lazka.

Now I can't access my original account including the PPA..

regards

Looks like Ubuntu SSO has a different set of email addresses from Launchpad. Have you tried logging in using your gmail address? If so then Ubuntu SSO has one account with two addresses, but Lp has two separate profiles with different addresses.

The easiest way to fix this is to merge ~christoph-reiter into ~lazka. Do you want me to ask an admin to merge the other identity with lazka so that SSO's login identity is always ~lazka.

Thanks for your answer.

I vaguely remember changing my account email (to the gmail one) some time ago, but...

If that means the PPA will stay on the same account and I can access it, yes that would be perfect.

thanks

Your other profile was merged into ~lazka. I think this issue is now resolved.
