[Mediawiki-l] Administrative rights

[Jeff Blain]

Hello,

I have a fresh install of wikimedia and having issues with giving sysop rights to users.

Following the Documentation, I recieve errors when trying to run the following command.

mysql> update user set user_rights='sysop' where user_name='jblain';
ERROR 1054: Unknown column 'user_rights' in 'field list'

Any help would be appreciated.

Debian unstable
MediaWiki 1.4beta3 
MySQL  4.0.23 

Thanks,
Jeff
