I was mistaken, the folders are all writable
and still I have this problem.

template_c currently has 2 files besides the index.html
( default%2Ftheme.html & default%2Ftheme_blockleft.html )

I do agree :) This test box in the corner is not webable.

I have evaluated 5 CMS's this week and this is the only one I haven't been able to get running :(

Why do I think this is the one I want?

Even if unable to log in, a real need to set Xoops's debug on. This enables first time intallers to ask meaningful questions.

How would I chmod on a Win XP system w/fat32

The file structure is set the way the zip dist set them. The folders themselfs all are read only but the files in them are writable. The install wizard found the files to be writable.

The only real permissions on this local server is setup by Apache.

<Directory "c:/wweb/html">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews Includes ExecCGI
AddType text/html .shtml
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

There are no .htaccess files in XOOPS path

Any thoughts?

Like many in this forum... after what appeared a clean initial install, I have a dysfunctional index page.

My setup: Apache 2.0.52 PHP 4.3.9 SQL 4.1.7
Running on a Win XP

XOOPS 2.0.7.3

Newbies need this link, it should be in an obvious place
https://xoops.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=80

Without being able to logon, I now set Xoops's debug on.
Getting to the error message is the first step to solution

Warning [Xoops]: Smarty error: unable to read template resource: "db:system_block_login.html" in file Xoops_Physical_Path\class\smarty\Smarty.class.php line 1042

Warning [Xoops]: Smarty error: unable to read template resource: "db:system_block_mainmenu.html" in file Xoops_Physical_Path\class\smarty\Smarty.class.php line 1042

Might anyone lend me a clue?

Being new to XOOPS the Big Red Line I see is a long unanswered thread...

Re: Dead links on index page after installation

The majority of new users have read doc\install.html Note that install.html is in error concerning PHP requirements. (5.0 is not supported). Most posts on this thread have the minimum server software pre-installed and have run the install showing all green, without errors.

Let me start down your checklist

Do you have PHP? Version 4.3.9
Do you have SQL? Version 4.1.7
Apache/ISS/Other? Apache/2.0.52 (Win32) mod_ssl

Xoops? Version. I have tried both
2.0.7.3 & 2.0.9 beta

Do you have a DB, with correct name and pass.

YES - it was verified by the install wizard
I look and see it with 31 tables and 277 records

Register Globals, on/off? on

Xoops URL?
Xoops Path?

Yes they are valid

Can you see install.php? No

Can you see index.php? Yes - but broken

Can you loging? <-- do you mean log in?

That is the problem

Where do I look for a clue?

I am also new to XOOPS and have the same problem ... Install wizard went smoothly and I now have a web site without a link to log in... same as the above posts

My system: Windows XP Pro, Apache 2.0.52, PHP 4.3.9,
MySQL 4.1.7, XOOPS 2.0.7.3

Hope there is Hope
