Hi,
I have an old version created with version 6,72 which has been running pretty well, but last friday I was changing and deleting some users from grups and after that things have been getting worse....
First I could log in with my usual admin user, which belonged to a group with had full access to all tables (insert, view, modify, delete), but after the changes, I could not get into any table to view the content (it said I had no permission)
And I could enter on the admin area....

But now I can't log in with this user as it says . Try again - but no luck with several trials.....

I've tried with another user with same privileges, and same problem... thinking on missing password, I've resetted this user password - sendong the mail to do so, but no success

I can still access to the program with a user, that has access to all tables, but no admin priviliges

any hint on what can be wrong? or what data you may need to guide me????
Many thanks

What you're describing sounds like an issue with the membership_users table, especially the permissions or passwords stored there. If permissions were removed or if users/groups were deleted or corrupted, access issues like these can happen.

Here are a couple of steps that works for current versions of AppGini, might help you regain access with a few tweaks:

1. If you have a backup, try restoring the table membership_users from that backup. That’s the cleanest way to recover your previous user access state.

2. If you don’t have a backup, but you still have access through a non-admin user (as you mentioned), do the following:

Step A: Locate the user with full table access
Browse the membership_users table using phpMyAdmin or a similar tool. Find the user that can still log in and has access to all tables (even if they're not an admin).

Step B: Copy that user's credentials into your config
Open your AppGini application's config.php file (found at the root of your generated app) and set that user as the admin temporarily:

Code: Select all

// In config.php
$adminConfig = [
'adminUsername' => "Paste the memberID of the user who can still log in",
'adminPassword' => "Paste the passMD5 value from the same user's row",
];

After saving the file, try accessing the admin area again. This should give you temporary admin access to fix group permissions or recreate lost users.

Important:
Once you've regained access, it’s highly recommended to reassign the correct permissions to the proper groups and recreate admin users if needed.

Hope this helps!
