Fresh install of XOOPS2.

XOOPS Test Page

All went perfectly - no errors during install.

On final page, I clicked on the link to take me to the site, and logged in using the admin level username I created in the install. Successful login, but the page just loops back to the login screen - I can't access anything.

Same result if I create a new user...

Using all recommended versions of PHP, MySQL, Apache, etc.
Running on Linux.
I turned off my firewall, but had same results...
Allowing all cookies, but same results....

Have tried everything in all the posts on this on the forums, but still have the same results... *sigh*

If I can't get this working in the next few hours, I'm going to have to resort to a different system, but I really like XOOPS!

I haven't touched any settings since installing (obviously...), so this is a fresh-from-install site.

erm... help?

a) I would have said firewall... but you say you have turned it off
b) Permissions for cache folder set to 777?

a)firewall off
b)permissions @ 777

The install is from the latest version of XOOPS.

Any other suggestions

I really want to use XOOPS, as it seems to offer everything I want...

Are you absolutely sure no firewall is blocking your HTTP Referrer? NPF? NIS? Windows XP Personal Firewall?

In my own case (see my other posts) - I had changed no settings what so ever. The main cache, however, was set to 644 - it isnt now.

It seems to work, but then again, it seemed to work for a while yesterday and then the same problem re-occured.

Absolutely no firewall. Have checked using various tools (inc. Gibson Research...

Whole system has just been DMZ'd for about 30 mins, and no difference.

And I laugh in the formless security-prone face of Microsoft. So no Windows XP, I thank you. ;)

Your problem is that your PHP is 4.0.6. To run XOOPS 2, you will need PHP 4.1.0 and higher.
