Title: No admin account?
Post by: jdarnell on April 03, 2004, 06:37:53 PM

We recently went on a deleting spree preparing to move to a smaller server.  We thought we had only removed files from our blackhole accounts, logs, and other cache type files.  However, now our admin password is no longer accepted on the server and when you go through the change password dialogue it says it cannot find the admin account.

Any idea what we've deleted or any suggestions on how to make a new admin account?

Thanks,

Justin

I can access the console with the admin account and password and root and password.  However, it is the server-manager, and the server-manager only that I cannot access using the existing account.  Authorization fails.  Thanks again for any help that anyone can provide!

Can anyone at least tell me where I can find the files that reside in http://mycompany.xxx/server-manager?  Where are these files in the directory structure?  Would removing the .htaccess help me in the short term?  Is there an .htaccess file, or is there some other protection in place?
