JOOMLA Error: “You do not have access to the administrator section of this site.”

If you got that problem then probably you tried to insert an administrator account in jos_user table. You can try my solution below. I expect you to have some knowledge in manipulating your database, if not then do it at your own risk.
Solution:
1) jos_user
– check that the account jos_user.gid=25 (Super Administrator)
2) jos_core_acl_aro:
– check that your jos_user.id is map to another jos_core_acl_aro.id
– if record don’t exist then create one.
3) jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map:
– look for jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map.aro_id = jos_core_acl_aro.id
– there should be only one record, If there’s multiple entry delete them.
– make sure that group_id=25
4) if record don’t exist then create one.

Try to login and good luck.

    If you receiving joomla 1.7 error “You do not have access to the administrator section of this site.” but password and name maches and are OK (you are sure pass and usrname you ENTERING are 100% correct and there is no anny error message like “your pass and usrname do not match or no such user”), then it might be done some mess in jour _assets table.

    I used fast way to solve this problem via phpMyAdmin pannel. I have deleted contents of table (your prefix) _assets and then using SQL querry inserted into (your prefix) _assets data from original joomla install directory, from file >> sample_data.sql

    I am able to log in to my admin backend again.
    It might be, some would needed look for problems in _assets table, if such error appears. Then one just should do minor changes (repair some incorrect values) to take administrator privileges again, but i was rush in time so i just “restored” _assets to after install state.
    One shoul do SQL manipulations carefully if you ar nor sure 100% what are you doing.
    One should make full DB backups before interventions, for restoring!

    I was having the same problem with Joomla 2.5, however when i tried to login from different browser it worked fine. So, I cleared cache from my main browser and it’s now letting me in.
