I'm having trouble logging into gerrit at git.eclipse.org/r. I get the following message:

Application Error

Ping. I can't use Gerrit right now because of this. Did something weird happen to my account?

Do you remember if you had an account on the egit Gerrit server?

Can't remember. I may have, but it would have been under a different e-mail address since my qnx address is fairly new.

Doug, can you try now?

For my own documentation, on the Gerrit DB server:

select * from accounts where full_name = "Doug Schaefer";

update  accounts set preferred_email = "newmail" where full_name = "Doug Schaefer";

update account_external_ids set email_address = "newmail", external_id = "gerrit:newmail" where account_id = 432 and email_address="oldmail";

Works now. Thanks, Denis!
