Hi, could you please give me the URL to your forum so I could see the problem for myself.

It would be immensely helpful in debugging.<

Well, you can either approve the message or set the forum to non-moderated.

The control panel required a valid cookie from the forum. The rest of the forum can work via sessions, that is what the forum except the admin panels is usable.

I went to your forum, and by checked the forum header I found your problem. Your $COOKIE_PATH variable inside GLOBALS.php is set to "/forum_install/" instead of "/forum/", which is why setting the cookie is failing.

Fix that variable and you'll be able to login as admin.pleas

I went to http://www.hvv24.nl/forum/

and I see 2 problems (likely the fault of the install script)

your $WWW_ROOT variable is wrong and $COOKIE_PATH is wrong

edit GLOBALS.php and change them to say:

$WWW_ROOT = "http://www.hvv24.nl/forum/";
$COOKIE_PATH = "/forum/";

I've also noticed that sometimes I have trouble
with accessing the admin when the cookies and sessions
confuse each other... at least that's what I
think is happening.

I have success getting around it by doing the following:

  • go to a different site
  • delete all your cookies
  • close all your browsers
  • reopen a browser
  • go to your forum
  • login as an admin
give that a shot.it

Re-install will not help this problem. You simply need to edit the GLOBALS.php file.

You've mentioned not being able to edit the file, what are the permission set on the file? They should be 666, if they are not change them to that.i

I wanted to edit the GLOBALS.php file from the main forum folder, i've tried to download it but no luck.
I went to dos FTP and nothing was possible there.
At last i tried the ftp command under Linux and there it was, the GLOBALS.php was actual a link to the include folder and there i was able to edit the file.

The forum is up and running now, althoug i'm not sure my security is tight. Although everyone should have access to the forum folder in order to use the forum but i'm not sure if the rest is secure.

I will adjust the forum some more in the comming days.

i will start another thread to investigate the posibility to change the language of the entire forum system to dutch.

thans for all the help.

Nice piece of programming and rather easy to setup ( i've seen more difficult ones )

Regards
Erwin
