Hi,

I don't know why, but the line:

 14 | pascal@linuxorable.fr | admin | c78e3b0f3d9244ed8c6d1c29464bdff9 | 2 |

doesn't exist anymore in the ezuser table. Only this one:

10 | nospam@ez.no | anonymous | 4e6f6184135228ccd45f8233d72a0363 | 2 |

is present.

I just would like to know the commande line to add the line with the hash passwd of the admin which is in the db_data.dba file (c78e3b0f3d9244ed8c6d1c29464bdff9).

I know how to update fields but not how to create them.

Regards

Pascal

Hi Pascal

Do you still have the user object?
If yes:

This for the hash type md5_user which you can find in your site.ini. If you use another hash type you need to change the password_hash and the hash_type number
$hash_type_nr = 2;
$password_hash = md5('YOUR LOGIN' . "\n" . 'YOUR PASSWORD');
$query = "INSERT INTO ezuser VALUES(USER_OBJECT_ID, 14, 'YOUR EMAIL', 'YOUR LOGIN', $password_hash, $hash_type_nr)";

(Replace all words in capitals with your settings)

If you do not have the user content object anymore I don't know what to do.

Remember to make a backup of your database before doing this.

Hi Claudia,

In fact, I wanted the mysql command to add the admin line.

Now, the ezuser table contents only:

10 | nospam@ez.no | anonymous | 4e6f6184135228ccd45f8233d72a0363 | 2 |

and no other line.

If I want to modify one value of this line I can use:

UPDATE ezuser SET password_hash="fdgss1254456sds456s1ssssssds" WHERE contentobject_id="14";

or

UPDATE ezuser SET email="pascal@anywhere.com" WHERE contentobject_id="14";

but how to create a new line in this ezuser table ?

Hi,

Well, the mysql command is:

INSERT INTO `ezuser` (`contentobject_id`, `email`, `login`, `password_hash`, `password_hash_type`) VALUES ('14', 'france@gmail.com', 'admin', 'c78e3b0f3d9244ed8c6d1c29464bdff9', '2');

but I can't login.

I cleared the caches, restarted Mysql but I can't login

I don't find anything in var/log/ or var/my_siteaccess/log/

Hi Pascal

Yes, you are right - the user_object_id was to much... I really shouldn't post something when I am busy with other stuff. Ok, hopefully I will be a bit more careful now.

I do not know where all the user relevant data is stored and how you lost your admin user, so I am not sure how to solve your problem. Check whether the user is enabled (table ezuser_setting). Enable full debug output and check whether you can see anything in there. Make sure that the object with the id 14 still exists (just fetch it in a template).
Make sure the user is a child of the admin user group.

What happens when you try to login? Do you get a message about the password being wrong, does it tell you about wrong permissions or what?

Also have a look at this post - this might help you to create a new admin user if nothing else works.

Good luck

Hi Claudia,

fortunately I do 3 backup per day ;-)

So a diff between two backup files tells me the admin user has been removed just like some user roles.
