can't login with user other than admin

Hi,

I have created a new user (frontend only). When I try to login as this user, I get ' errors during login'. I found in the forum instructions to add
ini_set('error_reporting', 'E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE');
in index.php - which I did - but I still don't know where to find the error text.

Please help - thanks in advance,

Jean

First question:
did you set

Code: Select all

$phpwcms['SESSION_FEinit']    = 0; // set 1 to enable sessions in frontend, 0 to disable sessions in frontend
in conf.inc.php?

EDIT: :oops: too lame this "morning! - has been gotten late yesterday night :lol:

thank you for your fast responses:

flip-flop: I am using 1.3.3 (upgraded 2 months ago)

claus: yes, I had set this to 0. But setting it to 1 didn't change the behavior. Still getting 'errors during login'.

Jean,

has your problem been solved? And if so, how?

I installed 1.3.5 with admin and two users, one for BE, one for FE. Whoever I try to login in the frontend login page I get either no reaction at all or once I got the message "wrong user/pw".

Furthermore this little red admin or edit box is missing in FE when I'm logged in in BE as admin.

Are u sure that '#VisualModeIndicator' is in your CSS [frontend.css]?

Hi Anke,

unfortunately my login problems are not solved yet. I haven't a clue what kind of errors are occurring - only "errors during login" ...

Did you also set the checkmark with "user may log in" ?

Hi Jensensen,

got it working now after installing Oli's FE-Login workarounds files, setting sessions in config and using login-cp (html didn't render).

Since setting sessions to on the missing admin-edit box is being displayed as well. However is seems FE & BE login isn't allowing non-admin-users to edit files that I specified as editable by setting "article owner" to the respective editor. So I guess this will actually have to wait until Oli gets the user management ready for use.

(@Oli, bye the way: - when editing articles, while the admin in the field "article owner" appears with a colored background in IE7 it remains white in FF.)

Thanks for the help,
Anka
