Hi,

I deleted the Administrator account thinking that it was not necessary but now I can't add new modules, during the installation I always get errors: 

KeyError: ('ir.model.data', <function IrModelData.xmlid_lookup at 0x7f636ba222f0>, 'base.user_admin')
ValueError: External ID not found in the system: base.user_admin
ValueError: <class 'ValueError'>: "External ID not found in the system: base.user_admin" while evaluating
"[(4, ref('base.user_root')), (4, ref('base.user_admin'))]"


So I created again a user called Administrator, I put him all the possible rights on the interface but it is not enough.

According to my researches on the forum I have to make an action on the datanase but I don't know how to do it. Can you help me?

Here's the post I found : https://www.odoo.com/es_ES/forum/ayuda-1/question/v12-restore-deleted-superadmin-user-154213

But I don't know how to fix the problem.


Thanks

PS : Sorry about my English, it's not my native language.

Learning for you: Do never ever delete default entries in Odoo before knowing exactly what you are doing. Do archive/deactivate instead, if you are not sure.

You need to create a new record in ir_mode_data table.

Use following query to create an entry for new admin user:

insert into ir_model_data (name, noupdate, module, res_id, model) values('user_admin', True, 'base', ID_OF_NEW_USER, 'res.users');

Please make sure to replace the ID of the new user by replacing "ID_OF_NEW_USER" in the query.

@Ermin Trevisan Yes, I realized that. Now I archive or deactivate. Thank you
