I migrated the OJS ploataform from version 2.2.1 to version 2.4.8-1.
I noticed that there is no admin user in the database. Instead, there is a user (ruan) who has administrative privileges.
How can I delete this user and create an admin user?
If I create a common user named admin and merge with the user ruan the user admins will inherit the administrative permissions ???
I think the admin user can only be created at the installation. Thus you would probably have to insert it manually in the DB – in the DB table users and roles (with journal_id = 0 and role_id = 1).
How was that user (ruan) with administrative privileges created and how do his entries in the DB look like?
