Successful login, redirect to main page - logged out already. Help.

So this is the scenario.

> Member login
> Page goes to user.php, it says
Thank you for logging in, XXXX.
If the page does not automatically reload, please click here
> Then it goes back to the main page, i am still not logged in. The login menu is there.

I tried stopping the browser on user.php, and then i typed admin.php but it says i dont have permission to access that area.

Any help is appreciated!

Im on XOOPS 2.0.7

Do you have FIREWALL on? If yes, try to off your FIREWALL.

Sounds like your firewall.

you mean the server host's firewall or my pc's firewall?

if there are many people with the same problem from different area, means the server's firewall right?

Your pc's firewall. Did you manage to turn off your firewall?

XOOPS sites use the HTTP_REFERRER information to check if you're logged into the website. Some firewalls (most notably software firewalls such as Norton and ZoneAlarm) block this information being sent to the server. This could prevent you from logging into the XOOPS site.

Most certainly your Firewall. I used to have the same problem until I disabled the HTTP_REFERRER check (in XOOPS 2.0, not sure whether the adjustment is the same in 2.2).

You can read my thread along with many varying solutions (including diabling HTTP_REFERRER) here, or read this FAQ

Good luck

BY FAR the easiest solution I have found is use IBP forum module and use it's registration/login side.

Let's face it, getting a person to sign up on your site is a feat in itself. Add the hoops for the firewall and say buh-bye to a new user. I've always thought this was a huge drawback of XOOPS (IMO).

After they are in and getting the feel of everything, then you can walk them through the XOOPS side and convenience them it's not a bad thing to set it trusted. (how many of us have heard that one?)
