admin a wiki/high level user/remove a file : you need to log as WikiSysop (or as an other admin, but you need an admin account to "create" other admins, so for now your only admin must be WikiSysop since you can't log)

log as WikiSysop : double check you entered the correct name (case sensitive) and the correct password (password you choose during install), it should work...
