| by Johnny5Step on 2008/11/24 4:14:49 That sounds great, but since I can't get back in to the Administrative Control Panel, how do I edit permissions? Is there a way to edit it in the mySQL tables through phpAdmin? Thanks, Michael |

| by sailjapan on 2008/11/24 4:01:09 As written above, please check that all users (including anonymous) have access to the Profile Module. When a user arrives at the site, s/he's anonymous until logged in. Giving access to this module should solve the problems. You can remove anonymous users permissions to all content modules separately, thus keeping your content only visible to registered members. Try this and get back to us. |

| by Johnny5Step on 2008/11/24 0:26:16 Hi, I'm new to Xoops. I did 4 uninstall and reinstalls yesterday on 2.3.1, and I'm having the same issue each time. The install goes fine. I can login as admin and do all the initial setup. Then once I log out I can't log back in. I get the same errors as above. Incorrect login etc. then back to the login page. The lost password process doesn't help. index.php and user.php neither will accept the new password I have just been given. The last time I set up a secondary user, but that doesn't work either. The first two times I used Fantastico. Then I thought from what I read here on the forum that that wasn't for the best. The last two were clean installs from the tar downloaded from the XOOPS site. The first time I thought maybe I tried customizing it too much, so I went through the process again and only did a little basic stuff before logging out. I've tried all the fixes that I found here. I changed the file /Xoops/kernel/session.php I have replaced this line: var $enableRegenerateId = false; with: var $enableRegenerateId = true; I went into phpAdmin and tried to repair and clear the sessions table. I chmoded the permissions on sessions.php to 777. All with no effect. We haven't started using this portal yet, so there's no content. I don't have any problem with uninstalling and doing a clean install. But until I find out why it's letting me in one time as admin then never again, I don't see any future in doing that. On my last clean install I was even able to satisfy Protector's security advisor except for the one provision that I suppose would have to be done by my host. However, there seems little point in getting them to tighten the security if neither I nor any other member can access the portal. It will, if I can get it working be a member's only board, and registrations verified by admin. We have no desire to be buried under avalanches of viagra etc. ads. Thanks, Michael |
