Cannot login after successful install

Are you able to manage the mysql database with a tool such as phpmyadmin? http://www.phpmyadmin.net/ or this tool is quite good.

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/administrator/index.html

Could you also PM me the details from phpinfo if you create a file called info.php with the following inside:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Thanks

Aaron.

Hello Aaron.

Thanks for the recommendation. Downloading phpMyAdmin now.

However, regarding the details of phpinfo(), I’m not sure if I could send you all the details. Pls. forgive me as I’m a total newbie on PHP. I might be sending out info that I shouldn’t. You know what I mean. I hope you understand. Perhaps, tell me the specific sections you want to look at so I could PM you the details?

Sure no problem if the site is hosted on a local machine security is always pretty tight as long as you don’t have a static IP, but if the site is hosted on a web hosting server showing PHP info is not very good

OK could you let me know the following sections:

1. MYSQL
2. dbx

I think when I get time I will create a guide on how to install PHP with IIS and MYSQL in a Windows environment MODx needs more IIS supporters I think and our Windows 2003 servers love MODx

By the way what is your environment, i.e what version of windows are you running etc?

I agree and that’s what I’m afraid of. I’m on static IP and just got infected by a worm. LOL!

Sure! PM sent. No ’dbx’ section though. Included ’odbc’ as I thought it is synonymous with ’dbx’.

That would be great, I’m sure! Good luck on your project!

• WinXP with SP2
• IIS 5.1
• PHP 5.2.1
• MySQL 5.0.37
• MODx 0.9.5

Cheers for the info your PHP info looks fine, how did you get on with phpmyadmin was you able to log in with phpmyadmin and see the MODx database?

I’ve got a dvelopment Windows 2000 IIS PC here so will download what you have and give it a try to see if that gives us any ideas to your problems.

Hi,

You might want to check out these guides I have just uploaded which is the same as your setup.

I had the same problem, and I followed the instructions on this article:

http://www.justinmeighan.com/mox-migration-iis-apache.htm

And it fixed it. Basically it came down to pasting these two lines of code at the bottom of the - /manager/includes/config.inc.php - file.

Session problem fix:
ini_set("variables_order","EGPCS");
ini_set("session.save_path","");
