Re: Invalid login credentials when connect from Magento Admin to the Magento connect

Use below step hope you can resolve your problem : 

  • Log in to your site using FTP or local system (htdoc/yourproject)
  • Browse to the downloader folder
  • Rename your connect.cfg file to something else (or delete it completely)
  • Now log back in to your admin panel and go to: system > cache management
  • Flush the Magento cache and then tick all boxes and refresh the cache for these also.
  • This will create a new connect.cfg file with the correct details. Now try to log in to your Magento connect again and you should have no problems at all logging in.
