The amount of times I have seen this. Basically your session ticket expired, but you know to edit this if it did happen and normally what you where experiencing involved logging in and out again.
The following table:
/*Column Information For - database.prefix_groups_users_link*/
-------------------------------------------------------
FIELD TYPE COLLATION NULL
------- --------------------- --------- ------
linkid MEDIUMINT(8) UNSIGNED (NULL) NO
groupid SMALLINT(5) UNSIGNED (NULL) NO
uid MEDIUMINT(8) UNSIGNED (NULL) NO
is what you need to change, if your account is UID 1 (Intial Account) you will need to add a group id of 1 and a uid of 1
groupid = 1
uid = 1
You will need to add a record with the following condition, this will restore your access to webmastery
