I was experimenting with forced http:// setting in the ACP. Now I can't login. What should I do? I'm running phpbb3.
 
Do the following carefully. Please ensure you make a backup as i take no responsibility if it messes up (although it shouldn't if you do it right).

Go into phpmyadmin (through cpanel). Open the table your forum tables are in. Click the browse icon by the phpbb_config table (where phpbb_ is your table prefix). Find the following row in the table - force_server_vars. When you find it, click the pencil icon and the value should be 1 in your case. Change it to 0 then save it. Then clear the cache of the forum (delete all files in the cache directory except the .htaccess file and the index.htm file)and you should be back in.

As i said please make a backup first. This should fix it.
