I just upgraded from 1.8 to the 1.9.5 weekly build. After this upgrade several issues occurred, while trying to resolve them I seem to have messed up some options. I really need help to resolve these issues since this system houses some 400 courses. The first issues was that everyone was registered to every course which is a nightmare, since updates on every course were being emailed to everybody else. And now after working for a while on the system the admin priveleges suddenly disappeared, so I've used the adminfix.php script to work things out, it worked the first time, but while editing the authenticated user role, and when i clicked on save changes it crashed again, and now I can't administrate the system and the adminfix.php doesn't do anything.HELP
Hi.
I think I red somewhere here that you have to change all the users to "Manual" in the field "Auth" in the "mdl_user" table (or whatever prefix you have).
But now I think you have to install 1.9.5 again. Rename the old directory, unpack and install, then run the www.yourhost.xxx/admin. If you had anything special in your old directory you should copy it over.

Thanks Bjorn, I'm going to give that a shot right now. But I've noticed something interesting, the admin.php in moodle/admin/admin.php is missing. is that normal for version 1.9.5? or has something accidently deleted it?
Ok, I've done a work around, installed a fresh 1.9.5 installation and then copied the mdl_user_capabilities table over to the old server, that seems to have done it.
