hi All, I have a web application that i restored from a backup. I am not able to log into the site even though i am the administrator on the machine. I have checked in the site collection administrator in central admin and i find my username being the site collection administrator. Please let me know where am i going wrong. Thanks and regards, Ram

Are you using windows auth or forms auth? Despite, you could try to setup a Web Applicaiton policy to give you full control of the web application as a temporary solution. ChrisChris Givens CEO, Architecting Connected Systems Blog Twitter

run stsadm -o siteowner and give the account permissions once again and see if that works :)Blog: Alpesh Nakar's Blog | Twitter: Follow Alpesh on Twitter |SharePoint Resources: Just SharePoint Resource Center | Follow Just SharePoint updates on Twitter
