Hey all ! I hope someone can help me. I have the first time login problem! I have no firewall and all my internet settings are right so i guess thr problem is the register_global setting (i have php 4.06) I tried to create a .htaccess file to turn it off (i just wrote php_flag register_globals off in it), but that always results in an internal server error....can anyone help me ? that would be great - i really want start using xoops. Greetings Iggy

Xoops doesn't require register_globals to be off.

Technically, XOOPS 2.0.7 requires PHP 4.1.0 or higher. It may still work with 4.0.6, but I'm not sure.

You could try installing Browser Check, and see if any tests fail.

Maybe it's PHP 4.0.6, then. If you can't get PHP upgraded on your server, you might need to find a different CMS.

A major different between PHP 4.0.6 and PHP 4.1.0 is that 4.1.0 provides the "superglobals" $_GET, $_POST, ..., which can be used in place of $HTTP_GET_VARS, $_HTTP_POST_VARS, ...
The superglobals are not supported by PHP 4.0.6.

These variables are used to pass URL parameters, form fields, cookies, etc.

I just checked, and XOOPS 2.0.7 uses the superglobals in some places, so that would prevent it from working with PHP 4.0.6.
