Solved! Magento 2 Admin Account Temporarily Disabled

Unlock your Magento 2 admin account

Well it may happen for whatever reason. On an aMiSTACX stack give this a try from CLI:

cd /var/www/magento

sudo php bin/magento admin:user:unlock "exampleadminuser"

Just replace “exampleadminuser” with your admin user account.

Another way, is to replace or create a new account from the CLI:

e.g., sudo php bin/magento admin:user:create --admin-firstname=magento --admin-lastname=admin --admin-email=support@example.com --admin-user=admin --admin-password=$uperPassword

Should you still have issues, and have access to email, attempt to reset your password.

If all else fails, reach out to our support.
