Fresh install - Can't login.

Post by Michael Sechkin »

Hello!

Just installed Phpwcms as it was described in Installation instruction, but can't login as administrator. Tried several times - no fate - seas "Errors during login"!

Any comments?

I have just had the exact same issue.

I'd need a little more info about your setup and problem but there are a few things I have leaned over the last two days :)

read the article called "Some install problems I think" posted by Klausre
in particular the session stuff - and make a sessiontest.php as advised.
(put a link to this new file on your login.php and test it)

when testing this myself to solve my problems I noticed my PHP.ini file was at fault and cured the problem when i changed the following to...

; The path for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_path =

; The domain for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_domain =

It works!

Hi everybody!

It works! PHPWCMS on FreeBSD with PHP4, MySQL 4, Apache 1.3.
Don't really know what was wrong?!? Installed Apache 1.3 instead Apache 2 and now PHPWCMS runs smoothly... :D

"No bugs, no bytes..." (Who said that? :lol:)
