Help with ADMIN account restore

General Help
1

I have a free PBX distro that’s about 2 years old and everything is working, however I can no longer get into the admin console…probably due to hacking cuz if I look in my databases for MySQL, there is no admin user, there are 3 users named root and one user named freepbxuser. I created a new user and gave them permissions the MySQL and asterisk databases, but the account doesn’t let me log in to the PBX admin panel. I am not a Linux guy, but any help would be greatly appreciated so I could get logged in again.

Thanks

Support/wiki and search for password recovery

Yeah but the admin account is gone? Will that still work?

Yes…did you look at the procedure? It disables authentication for a single session.

No, I did not see the procedure on the wiki, I looked through the first 10 pages of results and did not see it.

I found this http://vps.powerpbx.org/clients/knowledgebase/12/How-to-change-FreePBX-admin-password-from-command-line.html

Is this it? Looks like it

Glad you go it working. I did mention to use our wiki not to search the Internet. There is so much outdated info on the web.
