In v1.2.3 go to the Admin tab and then Permissions down on bottom left. Create a user type with a new “role” by clicking the new button and set each permission you want that user to have. Then go to the Users down on the bottom left and create a user and tick the box for the new “role” name that you created. ---

That’s a 1.1.\* version so you would probably be better off upgrading. By default I think there is a user created with view only permissions. Username=user Password=user unless you changed the user password. As far as I know the earlier versions like yours is much more limited. Look in your home directory genieacs-gui/config/users.yml ---

That should give you the changelog of genieacs with the current version at the top. You’re definately running the older Genieacs-gui and not the ui that comes with the 1.2.3 version. You may be running the old Genieacs-gui on the later 1.2.3 but the changelog will give you an idea > cat /usr/lib/node\_modules/genieacs/CHANGELOG.md ---

If you can I’d start from scratch which isn’t that hard. [Installation Guide — GenieACS Documentation 1.2.3 documentation](http://docs.genieacs.com/en/latest/installation-guide.html#) But if you’re doing this for Mikrotik setup as in the youtube then none of the configuration scripts are there now as it’s all in the database. ---
