how to add admin user without having access to users

ayee · 2012-08-13 19:28:58

Hello,

Currently, my GLPI does not have any admin users because they were deleted when syncing with the active directory. Is there a way to add a user with admin access without using an existing administrator account?

No, a user could never give more right than he has.

So if there are no current administrators, how could I add an administrator account? Is there some file that lists all of the users and their levels of access?

to clarify: is it possible to change a user's privileges via command prompt?

If you have "write" access to the DB, you can do everything.

See : https://forge.indepnet.net/attachments/ … s-0.83.pdf

If you don't know how to read this doc, I can"t help you more.

i do have write access. my plan is to go into the glpi_users file and change the access of one user, but the .myi,.myp, and .frm files are encrypted. is there a way to have a formatted view?
