Hi to everybody,

I have installed OpenKM 6.2 (build 13077) on a Ubuntu Linux 12.04 server and is working fine. I am however unable to change the password for the "okmAdmin" user. As the attached image shows, the pencil icon is not available for this user, while it is for other two users I have created.

I have searched this board, but with no avail. The OpenKM documentation (http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Change ... n_password) seems to refer to a older version of OpenKM, since the screenshots do not match with what I see, but it seems that my case is not discussed here (the text says to "edit" the "okmAdmin" user, so I think my case is not contemplated here).

Also, the OpenKM Administration Guide does not mention the possibility that such icon is not present (http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Administring_users).

Thank you for any help you'll be able to give me,
Maurizio.

EDIT: I found a workaround: you need to use the dropdown menu "Tools | Preferences | User configuration...": in this way you can modify your password even if you're logged as "okmAdmin". Still, I do not know why it is not possible to do this from the "OpenKM Administration" page.
