Hi there and thanks for your response.

If you would like to work behind a proxy, you HAVE to apply the hack completely (https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=thread&topic_id=13171&forum=21&post_id=69661#69661)
If I apply these patches I run into all sorts of trouble. After the main page, all other pages become blank. If I try to bring up the admin page by typing in what I know the URL would be, it says I'm not logged in and shunts me back to the main login. Logging in again brings me to a blank page.
I seem to have more success when I don't apply these patches? So the following comments are related to a standard install. Sorry if this is the wrong approach, but it seems to be the version that is as close to working as I can make it.

First of all, a couple of questions:
- XOOPS version ?
- OS used: Windows or Unix like ?
- What is the exact (complete) URL you get in your browser when the "Selected module does not exist!" message appears ?
2.0.6.....I'm copying the files from my Mac running OS X 10.3 to a Linux server.
Here's one example of a URL....basically the system icon appears and (in this instance) I've selected "Preferences" from the floating menu...
http://www.massey.ac.nz/~wwhusoc/admin2/modules/system/admin.php?fct=preferences

In you mainfile.php you should have something like
*************************************************************
// XOOPS Physical Path
define('XOOPS_ROOT_PATH', '/home/wwhusoc/admin2');
// XOOPS Virtual Path (URL)
define('XOOPS_URL', '/admin2');
// Hack
define('XOOPS_DEFAULT_DOMAIN', 'http://www.massey.ac.nz');
*************************************************************
Using either a patched version of XOOPS or a standard one, making the virtual path short produces bedlam....a very long (and incorrect) URL that produces an error.

One of the common reason for "Selected module does not exist!" error is when you copy files from Windows to Linux/Unix: the access rights are lost and particularly the "x" (executable) on the directories...
I've tried going through and adjusting the permission on multiple files once they were up on the server. I can't see it being that.

You might also need something like that in you apache configuration file:
*************************************************************
Alias /admin2 /home/wwhusoc/admin2
<DirectoryMatch /home/wwhusoc/admin2/>
Options +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
order allow,deny
allow from all
</DirectoryMatch>
*************************************************************
What does that do? I'm really going to have to convince the IT people in the University before they would be prepared to add any sort of config file.
Thanks in advance,
Phil
