Osgeo Userid Help

Introduction

Via this page: http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid you will be directed to the scripts to either create a osgeo_userid, or to change it (for example to reset your password).

Below is a Visual Representation of the process.

First

First step, go to https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/ldap_password_reset.py:

and fill in your email address in that form and POST it:

This screen will be the result:

Email confirmation email

And now... check your email (can take some time), you will receive this email:

Click the (one-time!) link in the email, and your password will actually be reset (for an hour) and you will see the following page:

Email with new password

You will receive an email with a NEW password (valid for one hour) to be able to login and change to your preferred password:

Login

Go to the link in the email, you will be presented with a login alert:

Do use the NEW password there, often your browser 'remembers' some password for you, but this is probably NOT the right one.

In the following screen you can change your password:

Problems

IF you happen to see the message 'Invalid token':

something went wrong.

Maybe you clicked asked for a new onetime password twice, or you 'used' this onetime password already?

Just go to https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/ldap_password_reset.py again and start over...
