Hi Martin,
perhaps all your problems can be solved by looking in the lower right
hand corner of your Futon instance. Does it say Admin Party?
If yes:
- click on Fix this
- create an admin account
- remember the admin password!
- Continue below...
If not:
- click Logout
- Now you should see Signup or Login
- click Signup
- voila, you can create a user.
Alternatively, if you want to create the users via a remote application,
you have to create the User directly in the _users table.
To do this, you have to send a http Request that contains the User
datastructure in JSON Format, including the hashed passwort and the
corresponding salt value. Just have a look at the _users table to see
how the structure is built.
Hope to have helped,
regards,
Philipp
