Hi folks,
I have been following https://webwork.maa.org/wiki/Release_notes_for_WeBWorK_2.18#Upgrade_Instructions to upgrade from 2.17 to 2.18 on a Ubuntu 20.04 server.
Things seem to work until I get to the end of the instructions, namely to the step "Make sure to upgrade courses from the admin course to relegate changes to the database". When I log into the admin course with my admin credentials, I get the following:
I am not sure why the admin account should not be authorized to do anything - besides also running the upgrade_admin_db.pl script I followed the upgrade instructions.
Trying to log in to any other course results in the (expected) error message "It looks like the database is missing a column. You may need to upgrade your course tables
." -- so clearly, I have to solve this "not authorized"-issue first.
Any help & hints are appreciated. Thank you.
