texte = I don't ever recall hearing about WebDNA recreate default databases when they do not exist. I don't think it does. In your case I think the best way to get the admin system working again is to take the site offline so no one but you can access it for a while. Then flush databases to clear the user.db from RAM. Then duplicate the Users.db and move the copy to another folder. Then edit the original Users.db manually with a text editor so that there is only one record left in it. Make sure all three fields in that record (user, pass, groups) have the same value: ADMIN. Then try logging into the admin interface and see if it works. If it does then all is good.

Does it create a new one that then reverts to the default? > ----- > Patrick Junkroski, ACTC, ACDT > > > Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
