The administration interface is disabled on this server
We seem to have locked ourselves out of the CMS. We get the following:

"The administration interface is disabled on this server. Go back to the main web site.".

How do we re-enble the adminstration interface?

Thnaks,

Hello.

Unfortunately, you need to contact your web site admin or a user who has global administrator account and she will check the UI personalization settings for your user account. Maybe something was changed by accident.

Hi Radek,

I was using the Global Administrator account when I got this message. Is there a way of resetting the UI peronalization settings? Can this be done by changing entries in the data base via SQL?

Thanks,
/Raj

Hello.

It is done in web.config file, via CMSDisableAdministrationInterface key. You need set it to false, e.g.:

<add key="CMSDisableAdministrationInterface" value="false"/>
