Hmm. I guess i'm going to try again to get phpMyAdmin working, as i'm running my own server here at home :).

I'll try that, and you'll hear from me soon.

Thanks for the advice!

Anyone?

Alright, i've tried what you said about clearing the caches. Unfortunately it didn't happen to make any difference.

Afterwards i tried to install PHPMyAdmin, without any success. My webserver is running Mandriva, so i had to install it through URPMI. During installation it seemed to doing fine, but when i know try to reach localhost/phpmyadmin it just says me:
"Access denied per /etc/path/to/phpmyadmin/folder/phpmyadmin.conf"

So, i removed phpmyadmin again, and tried to reach by database through Webmin.
This way i am able to reach my database. So i clicked on "nannies_xoops" (database name) and there are some pulldown menu's with table names.

I FINALLY found out how to work with the MySQL Section of Webmin. I got deeper into the tables and was able to turn my site back on (first thanks! :)) and also i was able to enable the debugging mode (second thanks! :)).
Now, going to my /admin.php debugging spits out the following lines:

Anything you can make out of it?

Now my website is accessible for the public en the debugging is turned on, there happens to be a new issue. I have to login twice. At first attempt it says "Thanks for inlogging + the redirecting message" and then redirects me back to the login page. At second attempt, it just goes fine. And this happens any time now. You jsut have to login twice, before you get the access to the website :S.
I tried another theme, the standard zetagenesis, and still got the same problem.

"Clear your cache files". Guess you're meaning my internetcache files, aren't you? I cleared those, but without any results.

Thanks for your second tip :)! I'll try to install PHPMyAdmin to access my DB. Right now i'm running Webmin to access my database, but i can't find the table you're talking about.

So, i will install PHPMyAdmin and try to turn my website back on, so the users can make use of it ;).

Dear xoops'ers,

Last week i tried to update my xoops site from 2.4.5 to 2.5.3. I followed the guide in the user guide pdf. But i guess i used the wrong one. Instead of just updating the System module, i used the upgrading method. Using the "upgrade" folder.

Before attempting to update/upgrade i closed my website through the Control Panel. After that, followed the upgrade-with-upgrade-folder guide in the user guide. This worked out to giving me an xoops screen, where it displayed some things which needed updating en some things which were fine as is.

So i clicked the 'proceed to upgrade' button, got through a couple of steps, and in the end, where it should update from 2.4.5 to 2.5.3 it got a kind of 'stuck'. Meaning when i clicked the 'proceed to upgrade' button, it takes me to "XOOPS sytem upgrade, Performing upd-2.4.x-to-2.5.0 upgrade" and when i click the finish button, it takes me back to the previous page :S.

I just tried to access my site after that, and i got the "website closed" screen, but 'cause i'm the admin i can still login, though. Everything works fine, except when i try to access the Control Panel, i only get a white screen, on every cPanel page.

I don't actually know what to do know.

I already searched for a solution, but the results i got, wheren't not like my problem.

Anyone out there familiar with my situation?


My system:
- PHP 5.3.6
- Webmin 1.530
- Apache 2.2.15
- MySQL Client Version: 5.1.46

Hello Wishcraft.

I appreciate your answer but first, i couldn't download XCenter from the weblink you gave, so i searched it in the modules here, in the modules section. I found it, downloaded it and installed it, but now when i try to Add Content, i am told that i "Need to have categories loaded", and then i'm redirected to a page where i can create a new category. But then when I filled out the form and click on Submit, i am getting the simple error: "Category did not save succesfully". Have you got any idea what could be wrong?

Dear Users,

I am building a website for a local scouts-group, and i was wondering wheteher it's possible to make just a plain page in Xoops with a link in the Main Menu, so i can fill the page with my own text. Why? Because they would like to have a page for the knots they're learning and some other pages like that.
What I'm actually asking is: Is there a way to create a page in Xoops, using the theme and css as like the rest of the website, where i can fill in my own information, with a link, as like with modules in the Main Menu?

Many thanks in advance .

Dear forum-users,

After i installed the shoutbox module i came across something weird. Usually when you shout a weblink the link should open in a new window or tab. However, in my shoutbox the link doesn't do that. Instead, it opens the link inside the shoutbox frame.

Is there anybody familiar with this problem and knows a solution?


Thanks in advance!

Dear xoops users,

Running xoops 2.4.5 I was wondering whether there's a possibilty to mail my website users their login en password. This, because of that i'm running a new memberwebsite for my sea scouts association. But now the website's ready for use, I like to mail the members their login and a unique password, but i don't like that I have to mail them all seperately.

I know of the existance of the {X_UNAME} Tag, but my question right know is if there's a kind of the same tag for the password.

I hope you guys can help me out.


Many thanks,
Technicum.

Okay, then i head back to my preferences in admin.php and go check if there's something i can do with the blocks.

You'll hear from me later.
