Invalid Username or Password after user man update

We have noticed the same thing (as well as had a few support ticket). Admin users from Admin, Administrators appear to get removed after these module upgrades. Based on the warning message we’re seeing in Admin, Administrators it seems like the move is to setup the users in User Manager.

This is the procedure we have been using, and it’s been working for us:

  • Choose Admin, User Management
  • Click Groups
  • Click Add
  • Give you new group a name, and description
  • Click on FreePBX Admistrative GUI and give the group the permissions you want
  • Add any other prermissions you want to give that group

Then you’ll want to create the user

  • Choose Admin, User Management
  • Choose Users
  • Either select an existing user or add a new one
  • Make sure they are part of the admin group you created above
  • Clock on the FreePBX Administration GUI tab
  • Make sure that Allow FreePBX Administration Login and Grant Full Administration Rights are set to Inherit (so they take the permissions from the group)

You should now be able to log into the FreePBX Admin GUI with the user you created.
