I have a site running 2.0.3 on shared Linux server.

Everything's fine until few hours ago. I login and get the "welcome message" then get redirected to an URL that is "http://www.mysite.comhttp://www.somebodyelsesite.com".

It's basically somebody's URL tacked on to my URL! -- which of course returns an "cannot find server" error message.

I called my host to see if he can duplicate the problem with a temp username/password -- yes, he can -- so I guess it wasn't a cookie problem -- because it's the first time he has signed in to the system.

He's looking into it now too but is sure that the other URL isn't a site that they host.

Any clue what happened?

check the XOOPS_URL and XOOPS_ROOT_PATH values in /mainfile.php

Thanks, ackbarr.

They both check out fine. Everything worked fine until a few hours ago.

While the URL I'm directed to is invalid. Once I enter in my correct URL I do get to my website (and yes, the system considers me logged in) and do everything else without problem. I can also logout and be directed to my homepage URL without any problem.

Okay, I updated the system module in the admin -> module control panel. And it fixed it.

Earlier today I deleted some file from cache (trying to force XOOPS to regenerate new cache files) perhaps something happened there to cause it.

All is well now. Thanks everyone.
