Re: Blank main page after login, no access to admin

Just a follow-up FYI:

I was unable to fix either the blank page or admin access problem. I eventually did a fresh install of XOOPS 2.0.18.1, installed all of the modules and manually copied the tables into the new database.

One thing I did notice... it's not advisable to copy anything but the module-specific tables because I got errors most times when I tried to copy a XOOPS core table (ie: comments, templates, etc) and had to revert to one of the incremental backups I was creating along the way.

Hope this helps someone.

On another note, I've just discovered that our new host is unable to accommodate us by creating a PHP.INI for virtual hosts. So NOW it looks like we're moving the bleeding site AGAIN. I'll create another thread in a more appropriate area asking for hosting advice.

Thanks to everyone for their help!

Mamba, I'm using PHP v4.4.8. Upgrading to XOOPS v2.0.18.2 doesn't help.

Runeher, I've had this problem once before and your suggestion was the one that worked for me then. But it didn't work a second time. Hehehe...

JAVesey, I've killed EVERYTHING in the cache dir and still no joy.

I'm wondering if file attributes are the problem. I have shoutbox installed and even that fails to work when trying to write to the csv file (even if I chmod the file and the dir 777).

Blank main page after login, no access to admin

I know this is an old problem but I have searched the forums, FAQs and read/tried as much as possible to fix my blank main page.

I've just re-located our website to another host, uploaded the files, set permissions 777 on cache, templates_c and upload dirs. The database imported fine. However, once the DNS had propagated the problem appeared.

Here are the symptoms:

Using XOOPS 2.0.18.1
Main page loads OK when not logged in.
Main page redirects to user.php when attempting to login (login works from this page)
Main page BLANK after logging in (or sometimes "Internal Server Error")
CAN access all other pages (ie: user.php, etc)
CANNOT access admin.php (the message I get is "This is your first time to enter the administration section. Press the button below to proceed." but pressing Submit simply displays this message again).

I get no obvious errors in debug mode when viewing other pages. I get NO debug information from the main page.

Someone please help - it's my wife's website and she won't cook me dinner until it's working.

Getting hungry. Thanks!

Thanks guys, I'll look into Preload right now. We do moderate the site heavily but we can't always be there 24/7 - despite having appointed 2 other moderators in our absence.

How to censor links in CBB forum?

Hi All,

I've searched these forums and cannot find a solution to my problem. Maybe I'm not being creative enough with my keywords. Anyway, here it is...

We allow our users to post links in our forums. However, there may be the odd site that we don't want advertised. How can this URL be replaced automatically when a user posts?

I have tried using the "Word Censoring Options" in Admin Panel but this doesn't seem to work on links.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hi John,

I've installed this mod OK and it seems to work fine. However, when I try to add an image to an ad (either by checking the "Do you want to add Photos now" option -or- by clicking the "Add Photos" link afterwards) I'm presented with a blank page at this address:

http://mychildworkshop.com/modules/classifieds/view_photos.php?lid=1&uid=1

I'm running XOOPS 2.0.16

Just noticed a bug in this forum: The code tags cause apostrophes to be stripped from text. Just FYI.

Now that I'm converted to using CBB (newbb) ...

To get this hack to work in CBB 3.08 (newbb), edit file /modules/newbb/templates/newbb_thread.html, and insert the following code at line 38:

<div class="comUserStatus"><a href="<{$xoops_url}>/modules/yogurt/index.php?uid=<{$topic_post.poster.uid}>">View User's ALBUM</a></div>

I believe the permissions per forum are located in the edit forum section. I haven't had newbbex installed in a long while though.

Hi Will, no, they're not unfortunately. I've been through the admin section more than a few times and it comes up short all the time.

If you really want to prevent users from editing and deleting you could just remove the buttons from the template.

Yeah, I thought of that. But I don't want a #OOPS#ised forum. Plus, now that I've seen NewBB I can see that there are extra security and other features that I really need. Any ideas on importing data from my old forum?

I see that a lot of the tables are identical... just a few added tables in Newbb. OK, not just a few... a LOT.

You're right, my bad. There is no delete function. But the EDIT function doesn't time out. I've tested this extensively.

You could hack the edit function.

Nah, I thought about that but I don't like to cruel scripts in case I cripple them for upgradability.

Hopefully someone will come along with the correct answer.

Well, at this stage, hopefully someone will come along with a nice script that will import my NewbbEx data into Newbb without me having to manually copy the tables with fingers crossed.
