Add Administrators to a Facebook app if only Developer role is filled

Question

Taken from off-topic question at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8748388/how-to-add-administrators-to-an-app-if-only-developer-role-is-filled by anon user

I am the designated developer for 11 apps however no administrator exists. Some apps need to be deleted and other users added to other roles.

Is there a way to add an admin?

Answer 1

Deleting oneself (the only administrator) from one of the test applications results in

Must specify at least one developer who has administrator permission.

So it's possible that the original administrator deleted their Facebook account or it got suspended. Or your app was victim of this bug: http://bugs.developers.facebook.net/show_bug.cgi?id=18848

You should contact Facebook directly.
