i use windows (xp) firewall. i have turned it off and still have the problem. anhow, i use modified referer check function in file include/functions.php
le="color: #000000"><?php function xoops_refcheck($docheck=1) { $ref = xoops_getenv('HTTP_REFERER'); if ($docheck == 0) { return true; } if ($ref == '') { return true;//the very original //return true;//hacked code } if (strpos($ref, XOOPS_URL) !== 0 ) { return false; } return true; }
i can think of two things which could cause the problem:
1. the DB is on a different server then the web (so i had to change 'localhost' in mainfile.php to actual server name)
2. the site domain is not yet transfered/registered so i left blank variable XOOPS_URL in mainfile.php and i'm testing the web by putting my hostname to file windows/system/etc/hosts on my computer along with the webhoster's server IP adress
