Install does not create an admin account

Post by nay27uk »

I have installed this 3 times now and during install where it ask for an admin name it will not allow changing the alredy filled in admin to anything else. so I installed it three times leaving the admin username as admin and then entering my admin password two times and clicking on install button, the installer then takes me to a page that canot be displayed but the script is installed if I go back to my domain the script is also installed in the database im PHP my admin as all tables are there, However when trying to login to the admin section by inputting the username of admin and the password I created during install it says the account was not found. upon looking In PHP myadmin at the faquser table the faquser table is empty nothing in it at all.

PLEASE give me some SQL I can run in PHP my admin to add a admin user to the database because without access to the admin section this script is useless

As Far as not being able to change the Admin name to anything else, this is not a bug, this is how it is suppose to be, but as for it not creating the Admin and password in your phpmyadmin Database i will have to try and reproduce issue in 2.6.16 to see if this is happening, but within the next few days 2.6.17 will be released.

Cheers,

Jason

As of right now this is not a known issue, I was unable to reproduce issue, I did a fresh Install on my webserver and was able to login to Admin Panel Just fine using version 2.6.16

hi thorstean please see my other post here viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12220 rather than me taking up forum space by double posting. I posted in both sections in the outset because I thought maybe it was a bug and posted the other for general help on the matter.
