Hello guys,
I'm not having any luck today...
First i've not been able to post here, been getting an error, hope that this message will go through !

I spent 5 hours setting up a new XOOPS as my old one seemed to have died and I figured it would be easier to set up a new one.

So I set it up, everything is superb, i'm about to call it a day, when I try to login and realise that it doesnt work... When using the side block login nothing happens ! I have to go through the user.php page to login sucessfully...

Once in, I click to access the admin menu, and a window pops up saying that this is my first time in the control panel... So I click submit, and nothing, I am sent back to this same page...

Any idea guys ? Your help would be muchly appreciated !

Please help me out here, i'm totally stuck...

Sam

Write permissions on cache folder?

Hi Sam,

Tell us what version of XOOPS you are using along with PHP & MySQL version. We can then try to help your bad day get better

Hey guys,
Thanks for your support, deeply appreciated !

In reply to your suggestions, I have tried chmoding the cache folder to 444 and 777 but with no luck...

As of the PHP Version it seems to be running on 4.4.2 (http://www.radiofmr.com/info.php) and i'm not too sure of how to find the MySQL version...

Any advice on solving this would be much appreciated...

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Clear firefox cache if you havent done yet.

Looks similar from a quick peek in the first page.


- does a different browser work?
- empty (not delete) sessions table in the database
