ok, now the only difference is that i must log in twice

the first time does log me in but maintains the same page [login.php], on loggin in for the second time it forwards me to phpwcms.php
strange but not so uncommon from posts i have read.
but alas still no thumbs | images | upload etc.

thanks for the help and for the reseacrch too - could i change the "include_once" to "include" and only expect a performace hit?
it sounds messy already

[and a slight pain for all the futer releases too]

The thumbs | images | upload "smacks" of file/folder permissions (don't know if that matters on your local server).
The "double-login" sounds familiar

The include vs. include_once issue would be a bag of worms... It's used in ~many~ places...

Have to think on it

thanks for all you help D - I must run off to an Xmas dinner now too.
I'll be knocking on this door again Sunday - be afraid or be out the choice is yours

and Oliver, I'm still not disheartend with phpwcms at all, so thanks for creating it in the first place

This may not be the problem if "php.ini" has the following:

Code: Select all

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Fopen wrappers ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Whether to allow the treatment of URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
allow_url_fopen = On

Sorry DeXXus, I've been VERY stupid - I have been using a database that have images uploaded but had since reinstalled phpwcms and so the thumbs that could not be found were not even there

having corrected that....
I have been able to fix my problems to a point.
still I use "tinyotots.tv/" as my site and "" as my root but have changed a line in my login.php from

Code: Select all

mysql_free_result($check);
		header("Location: ".$phpwcms["site"].$phpwcms["root"]."phpwcms.php");
		exit();

to...

Code: Select all

		mysql_free_result($check);
		header("Location: "."phpwcms.php");
		exit();

this now lets me login fine AND shows the thumbs [mini mexican wave in honnour of this]

I now have only one more issue to beat (i think)
I can't upload files as this gives me an error....

Code: Select all

Please do not try again - this is an server error! Contact the webmaster to tell as soon as possible!

This is I am lead to belive a dir admin rights issue. I have set all rights to all forlder to full_control (winXP version of 777) but still have the same prob.
would it be possible to ask if one of you php guys would write a line of debug code that would display the full path that phpwcms is actually trying to create a new directory in please? - i think this may help me find the source of my problems.
thanks in advance pSouper.
