Does your username contain spaces/underscores? I don't know if you should use spaces or underscores for user name, so try both and see if that works. Use double quotes if you're using spaces.

Also, if your username contains non-ascii characters, the shell may be misinterpreting the characters, and not matching your real account.

You could also create a new bureaucrat, login with that account and give yourself permissions with that new account, and then disable it.
