> Attempting to get into the management side of the system I found I couldn’t access it. Upon inspection there is no data what so ever in the sitedetails database table other than (what I assume is an auto incremental number) the id of 1. There is no site_url,
apache, admin_username, admin_password .... etc etc.<br>
