Dear Rob,
I did what you wrote. But there is still no change in the rights. After logging by the first created user's credentials also there is no difference. The pages looks just as for any other user. No extra links.
Please advice. I am using phpMyAdmin MySQL 5. I have been strugling for a very long time. I dont even mind installing it all over again. Please guide me. Thanks in advance.
Regards
Umesh

You probably chose the "MySQL 5 binary" schema. Ha ha, tricked you. If
so,
it should be fixed in 1.11.
Yes...
Anyway, to sort out the problem for now, create a new user in the normal method, check the user's identifier in Special:Preferences, and then insert a couple of rows into the `user_groups` table in the database, like so:
INSERT INTO `user_groups` ( `ug_user`, `ug_group` ) VALUES ( 1, "sysop" ), ( 1, "bureaucrat" );
