Created a new LS user-But did not receive an email from LS with the password. So I choose the 'Forgot your Password' route-got LS email with the temp password.
Now, I try to change my Password in LS, but keeps throwing this error shown below.

The Full LS Error Msg:

Hi Denis & Olle, Thank U for ur reply.
As suggested, I activated 'debug mode' & ran the change password process again, with same result.
Am attaching the full error msg that was displayed. Saving in html only did not capture the msg, so saved it in docx.
Regards
JK

Hi c_Schmitz,
I updated the fix changes to the 3 files (mod - application/config/version.php, mod - application/helpers/update/updatedb_helper.php, mod - installer/create-database.php) in my LS environment. Re-started Apache, singed on to LS 3.72, & tried to change my user password. Got the same error, since the 'one_time_pw' column datatype was still the same. (If this is not what I s/have done, pls advise)

So next to overcome this issue, I decided to do a fresh install of LS 3.7.2 pointing to a newly created SQL database. Modified the 3 files (mod - application/config/version.php, mod - application/helpers/update/updatedb_helper.php, mod - installer/create-database.php) with the fix diff change & started installer 'https://CompanyLSsurvey.org:/limesurvey/admin/admin.php'
BUT, immediately I got this error.- (full error msg attached.)
CDbException
The table "{{settings_global}}" for active record class "SettingGlobal" cannot be found in the database.
G:\Apache24\htdocs\limesurvey\framework\db\ar\CActiveRecord.php(2390)

Again if this is not the right method to add the fix, pls advise.
Regards
JK
