Logging In
If you're the administrator, you can log in with your ID and password and begin administering the site.
Where to log in
Depending on your site setup, your front page, or another page on the site, may show a login block like this:
Whether or not you see that, though, you can always log in by going to this page:
<your site domain>/user
Provide the ID and password, and you're in!
How to fix "Access Denied" for admins?
Posted September 29th, 2007 by DrupalaceQuestion answer
A search of the Drupal site quickly turned up this gem:

Just a little addition to my INDEX.PHP file. I tried it, and Huzzah! Back in logged-in action.
The cause of the problem? Perhaps this:

Hmm, could it be that the ISP had updated PHP from 4 to 5? Yes, it seemed so! (Maybe now I'll start to pay attention to their newsletters.) So the thread addressed my woe, and I'm a happy Drupaller all over again. Now, this particular case had a Drupal 4.x site knocked out of action by a PHP upgrade, so it may not apply directly to many users' situations. But if you're getting "Access Denied" hate (on 4.x or 5.x), give the linked thread a peek. My thanks to everyone offering help on the topic, especially Drupal Gods kweisblatt and johnchalekson!
Newbie Emergency #1: "I'm locked out!"
Posted July 1st, 2007 by DrupalaceIf you log out without having set up a convenient login block to let you back in... you're locked out! Right?
Fortunately, there's an easy way back in: <your domain>/user will always provide you a login form. (Make that <your domain>/?q=user if you don't have "clean URLs enabled.)
Yep, I've done the Locked-Out Panic. So have countless others; it's THE emergency de rigeur among Drupal initiates. Get a Drupal tattoo to mark the rite of passage, then log yourself back in!
