Can't sign in to admin/install.php

lala1973nc · 09-07-2005, 07:46 PM

When I try to sign in with my username and password the page refreshes leaving the username and password blank.

I followed the instructions and set my username and password in the config.php file and then uploaded all the files and chmoded what was necessary.

Why can't I sign in?

The username and password are case sensitive. Is that it? If not, what version of PhpDig are you using, and do you allow cookies?

The username and password are being entered just as I placed it int the config.php file. I do allow cookies and I am using phpdig-1.8.7[1].

What version of PHP are you running? If your PHP is less than version 4.1.0, add the following to the top of the config file:

Code:

if (PHP_VERSION < '4.1.0') {
	$_GET = &$HTTP_GET_VARS;
	$_POST = &$HTTP_POST_VARS;
	$_COOKIE = &$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;
	$_SERVER = &$HTTP_SERVER_VARS;
	$_ENV = &$HTTP_ENV_VARS;
	$_FILES = &$HTTP_POST_FILES;
	$_REQUEST = array_merge($_GET,$_POST,$_COOKIE);
}

I am running PHP 4.3.10.

Hmm, make sure you are on admin/install.php and try your username and passowrd again. ATM I cannot see why the login won't work for you, so try adding echo " A "; echo " B "; echo " C "; etcetera at various lines in libs/auth.php and see if they print onscreen when you go to login. Maybe that will provide a clue as to where the issue lies.

I followed your instructions and received this parse error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_IF, expecting ',' or ';' in /home/theschiz/public_html/phpdig/libs/auth.php on line 48

I am clueless. I rechecked my config.php file. Username and password are definitely set. I read the script and everything looks ok.

Line 48 in the libs/auth.php file reads:
if (PHPDIG_ADM_AUTH == 1) {

I may try to reup the files to my server and try the steps again.

I did it. For some reason I must have missed a step but I have accessed the install.php page and I am very happy. Thanks for trying.
