I can't login to the admin of an ez installation (in production) .

i tried to backup the mysql db to work locally but i got this error:

mysqldump: Can't get CREATE TABLE for table `ezsession` (Can't open file: 'ezsession.MYI'. (errno: 145))

It seems the ezsession table was damaged at file system level.

The only backup availables were lost because the server hard disk was defective.

i made a backup of the other tables except for ezsession and recreated all the db.

then i've created an empty ezsession table from another installation of the same version.

then i tried login but it says :

can't login, you need a valid username and password to login.

i tried different users, the only one i could login is a user with no admin permission.

any suggestion would be appreciated.

thx in advance ?

Hi,

it looks like more than just the single table was damaged in your db.

You can get admin-rights back by forcing access to the role module, login with the user you still can and the accessing /index.php/SITEACCESS/role/list. There you can choose the role your user uses and add the role * * * rights. This will give you back the admin rights. Before you can do this you need to add this to your /settings/override/site.ini:

[RoleSettings]
PolicyOmitList[]=role

Hope this helps and you get at least anything back from your database. To avoid data lost in future, I suggest a backup-soltuion like bacula ( http://www.bacula.org ) and a redudant storage of your produktive database.
