I've just installed MediaWiki 1.4.4 under Suse and have a newbie question.
I want to set up an administrative user and went to the documantation at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Documentation:Administration#Getting_adminis…
and tried to follow the listed steps, but came up with an "ERROR 1054: Unkown column
'user_rights' in 'field list'.
Using phpMyAdmin to look at the user table in fact shows that there isn't a
user_rights field, but that there is a user_rights table, with a ur_rights binary field.
Manually changing the ur_rights from 0 to 1 did not seem to enhance the user's
access.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks
