Hello,

I already Installed AWX on my Openshift Cluster, and it works fine with the project suggested on [https://github.com/ansible/ansible-tower-samples](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-tower-samples), but when I tried to make a simple modification on the playbook to install httpd package as mentioned bellow, I got privilege problem, I need to connect as a superuser, but I don’t know how.

I already tried to create a superuser by this command awx-manage createsuperuser, but I Think it’s not what I need.

can Anyone help me about this? or already tried to do this test?

Thank you in advance!
