I have installed Drupal 7.42 and am using it with Xampp server with PHP version 5.5.27 and server version 5.6.25. I want to access the Drupal admin page or dashboard but I can't because when I create a new account it asks me to select a username and then asks for my email. I provide both of these and then get a message saying that I should check my mail for further instructions to activate the account.
The problem is I am not getting any such mail even after several attempts. My junk folder too has nothing in it. Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thank you.

Is it possible to change Drupal8 admin password using Drush? Or fetch the password in any other way.
I have forgot the administrator password for the local Site. I can access the database and also able to access the user related table. As in my localhost there is no smtp server setup I am unable to get email using forget password.
If anyone have any idea to fetch the password or reset it, thus I could able to use the password. Please let me help with your valuable suggestions.
On Drupal 8 you can do this :
drush upwd my_username my_password
# drush upwd admin 123456
I had tried several time the flood table got several records and blocked the user.
To clear the data and unblock the user I have used the following drush command
drush sqlq "DELETE FROM flood"
Then I had run the following command to reset password
drush upwd --password="mypassword" "admin"
After that I was able to login into the site.
I got some help from drupal community and the following post Recovering the administrator password
i know you found a solution to your issue but for future reference and anyone else that may stumble upon this. Drush can provide a one time login for superuser.
drush uli
after that you can copy and paste the link into your browser.

All of my sites using Contact Form 7 has stoped working on submit. The response container "wpcf7-mail-sent-ng" says "An error occurred while sending the message. Please try again later."
I get the following feedback:
into:"#wpcf7-f112-o1"message:"An error occurred while sending the message. Please try again later."status:"mail_failed"
Any ideas how to resolve this? Kind of a big deal as a lot of my customers currently use CF7 on their sites.
Thx
EDIT
I have the same issues, wich started after the Wordpress 4.9.2 automatic update. I have tested sites that are running the same release of CF7 but on another version of Wordpress, and there are no issues then. Seems like a Wordpress problem right?
Also, nothing in the console, and I get the same message in the feedback under the Network tab in devtools.
For this issue, you can follow below steps,
These fixes include:
change the wordpress contact form area from section ([your-name] <[your-email]>) to info#yourserver.com.
add all fields inside
or
Use “WP Mail SMTP plugin”. Then you configure your mail server details.
WordPress Mail SMTP Plugin
Once you have sent an email
“Thank you for your message.” Possible to refresh the automatic page.
For me personally, I tried the first two options, but it only started working and sending emails after I installed the WP Mail SMTP plugin, and configured it to use the Gmail SMTP server (which required that I created a gmail account, as you need to provide a username and password when connecting to Gmail's server).
The problem is now resolved!
Turns out my hosting company hade issues with php mail()
To be sure this doesnt happen in the future you can follow Priyanka Modi's advice above and use WP Mail SMTP PLugin. Yet another plugin, but it works great.
When I try to sign into my websites wp-admin login screen it refreshes and redirects me to the login page. After researching this issue it looks like deactivating the plugins should fix the issue. However, when I try doing this from phpmyAdmin, it tells me that the UPDATE command is denied to user.
I have tried using the FTP client 'Fire FTP' to try and access my files but I do not know which username and password needs to be used (I have about a million at this point).
Is there somewhere in the Azure portal where I can edit my files and deactivate the plugins?
Other information: I accidentally deleted the file the had my Wordpress admin password, but I am able to log into Azure, and phpmyAdmin. I also have my cPanel login information but I cannot figure out how to access that either. I am also using a Mac.
Please help! I have a basic understanding of web development but not much and I have worked incredibly hard on my website business but this has been a rough setback.
Looking at your problem, FTP is your best option. You can define the user/password at the portal in your app service blade:
Login into the portal: https://portal.azure.com
Navigate to your app service blade
Look for Deployment Credentials and set your username/password.
I was able to resolve this. Turns out I had exceeded my database storage. Simply upgrading my plan fixed the issue. So if anyone sees this and has the same problem, make sue that your SQL db has enough storage available.
The plugins made me exceed my storage but I did not need to deactivate them.
I am reactivating an old Drupal project that was created by a past employee. He left no instructions on how to access Drupal. I gained access to the postgres database Drupal is using and changed everyone's password. I also made sure all users had administrator role and that administrator role has all permissions. When I log in with any of the users, I simply get "Access denied" for every page I try to go to. I've tried /admin, /user, /node, and several other pages. Changing the password definitely reset their password because I'm not getting an invalid login message, just an access denied message. The site is first being authenticated through apache using LDAP, and I made sure there are apache users that match the Drupal users. I am totally stumped. As I said, the person who did this project initially is gone and can't be reached. I have looked at several similar topic threads and can't figure this out.
have you enabled the ldap mod in apache?
try /?q=user
is phpMyAdmin installed? Check users there as well.
I have created a WordPress site on Windows Azure using the gallery.
I understand that Azure sites do not have SMTP capabilities.
How do I do a password reset on a WordPress site if it can't send email? I know that I can specify an SMTP server (like Gmail) in the WordPress settings and/or with a WordPress plugin. But I have to be able to login to do that.
It seems like WordPress site installs from the gallery are not completely functional because of the lack of a password reset option. Is there any other way to do this that I'm missing?
Actually you could use SMTP on WordPress in Azure by adding a plugin for configure the SMTP service. These are two of the plugins you can find. Personally i have tested configure-smtp and is working very well. Give a try to it and leave feedback.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
If all you need is access to your wordpress administration - so that you can install additional plugins that will give you the option you lack then you can update your password dirctly in the database.
see this codex page:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password#Through_MySQL_Command_Line
Starting with MySQL version 5.x you can also run this command:
"UPDATE (name-of-table-you-found) SET user_pass = MD5('"(new-password)"') WHERE ID = (id#-of-account-you-are-reseting-password-for);" (actually changes the password)
also this page has some info about azure and sending e-mails:
