Make sure your browser isn't filling in a previously saved password using autocomplete. Can you try the reset password process again? Let us know exactly what it says and what you do. Thanks.

What url are you using to login?

 

You are connecting to your server locally and using a local user account correct?  This process has nothing to do with Connect users.

it seems like i dont even have to type valid username when trying to reset passowrd... i think i forgot the original username. i tried re installing emby but it still wants me to log in instead of showing setup.

What do you mean?  Userdata (ie watched status) is stored in the library.db, but server users are maintained in users.db.

 

/var/lib/emby/data

That's correct, because you may have forgotten the username.
