hello!

try to change the following lines.

Code: Select all

// site values 
$phpwcms["site"] = "http://127.0.0.1/"; 
$phpwcms["admin_email"] = "email@joerg-thode.de"; 

// database values 
$phpwcms["db_host"] = "localhost";

[/code]

Are you running it on you own desktop machine or somewhere else? If you are running it on your own machine then the 127.0.0.1 would probably work better for you if you are running apache but localhost would work too. Maybe a little more info about your setup would help if the suggestions given aren't working for you.

@Pappnase
The site you are working on looks really good

hello

are you really shure that you had no problems with createing the admin account!?

cos i wondering that this line is set to 0

Code: Select all

$phpwcms["db_pers"]           = 0;

in every installation i made i have the a 1

Code: Select all

$phpwcms["db_pers"]           = 1;

did you really set "create admin account" ???

check the table phpwcms_user if there entries.

p.s. it's only an idea i don't really if this mean that you create one user!

you should double check to see that in your php.ini file you session cookies turned on. I had a problem b/c it would not use session cookies so even though the login works fine the cookie is not set so it sends you back to the login page. It didn't matter if browser was accepting cookies b/c php will attach the PHPSESSIONID to the url if no cookies are accepted but if php can't make the cookie on the server side then it runs into problems. Maybe that will help

Also, you might try a few "possibly" informative things:

1. edit your "php.ini" file
from:

Code: Select all

error_reporting  = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

to:

Code: Select all

error_reporting  = E_ALL; display all errors, warnings and notices

-AND-

2. Check the Apache server errorlog!
Apache tries to be helpful when it encounters a problem. In many cases, it will provide some details by writing one or messages to the server error log. Sometimes this is enough for you to diagnose & fix the problem yourself (such as file permissions or the like). The default location of the error log is
/usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log (Unix)
{apache_root}/logs/error.log (Windows and OS/2)

Login, nothing happens

Login, nothing happens

no change with 127.0.0.1
