Can't login admin

Post by fabelu2002 »

Hi all,
installation was easy, filled in dbhostaddress, dbname, dbusername, dbpassword. The only thing I didn't know was dbhostport, so I left it like it was (3306). All tasks were managed "successful" and "done" and installation was finished successful. I could enter "my site" and read the default site. I tried to enter the admin area and got the CMS Admin Login site. But I can't manage to type into the field of the admin site. When I click on it, there is no cursor in the field. There is no button on the site either.
What can I do?
Any help would be appreciated.

That's very strange.  What OS and browser are you using?

Anyone else have this configuration out there?  I really can't test it.

I tried and ... Yes, it does. Thank you Greg for that. But why doesn't it work with NS, which is my favourite browser?

Have the same prob and tried with IE, Firefox and Opera but can't login.

What looks strange to me is that the email address of admin in the user table is 'admin' and not the address I entered.

Installed new and now login works. Also the mail address is saved properly.
No idea what this was ...

I did a new install of CMSMS, and the index page loads up o.k. However, when I switch over to admin, and hit submit on the login page, I only get a blank page returned. This is the same on IE, Firefox (mac and pc). I know there was a slight PHP upgrade this week on my server from 5.0.4 to 5.0.5. Any suggestions or ideas?

I copied the htaccess file from my /doc dir and added the error_reporting code, and uploaded into my admin directory. I'm not sure where to access the results of the error reporting....sorry very newbie.

Hi,
Im having the same problems as Kate, and the error report just spat out a bunch of PHP Strict Errors which apparently are unimportant, and nothing else.  Im running MySQL 5, PHP5, and 0.11beta5 on XP.  The same thing happens on Firefox and IE.

Just an update, I got everything work.  My session.save_path wasnt set correctly, but when I fixed it everything worked.  I just wanted to say that this CMS is awesome, and just what I was looking for.  Keep up the great work!
