Description

Upon a fresh install of Moodle I gave the default admin user a username other than "admin." Then, when trying to install the phpMyAdmin module, I received errors regarding not having admin privileges. I renamed the default admin username to "admin" and tried again; subsequently, the phpMyAdmin tables were properly setup.
