Promote User To Administrator

Problem

I need my bugzilla account to be an administrative account.

Solution

If you have shell access, look at the localconfig file to get valid database credentials. Once there, either copy the profiles.cryptpassword for a known user account to the administrator account, OR add your account to the admin group:

SELECT @myusr := userid FROM profiles WHERE login_name="PUT YOUR EMAIL HERE";
SELECT @admin := id FROM groups WHERE name="admin";
INSERT INTO user_group_map (user_id,group_id,isbless,grant_type) VALUES (@myusr,@admin,0,0);
