Hi,

For the moment, there is no way to change it by the XOOPS admin (in the next version).

The solution : modify manually the conf_value if the for the row auth_method in xoops_config table.

Hi,

What he means is, you need to use a tool, like phpMyAdmin to edit the MySQL database that stores the data driving your XOOPS website. Although the GUI has been hosed by your selection of LDAP Authentication, you can remedy that situation by finding that field in the MySQL database that was changed from 'xoops' to 'ldap' and switching it back manually.

And just in case you don't know, phpMyAdmin is a php-based GUI that acts as a database editor of sorts for your MySQL database. So download it, install it into your htdocs directory, configure it for root access and make the change by running it in your browser. Then remove it! You don't want just anyone coming by your site to be able to phpMyAdmin into it with root access.

Hi.
Many thanks for your reply, yes i do understand a bit about MySQL and phpadmin and i've been trying to find the right table, BUT unfortunatelly, i'm not sure where and which one could be, as there are 88 tables on my server.!!
Anyway thanks again.

According to the prefix of your tables, the right table is

<prefix>_config (eg xoops_config)
