CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi, I'm new to CMS made simple, so I have to learn a lot.

My first problem is the popup with the error about XML response after installing. Can't find any solution in the forum however.
It happens when I want to do whatever handling in Content > Pages (Inhoud > Pagina's)

I am running CMS Made Simple version 1.5.3, PHP 5, and MySQL running on Windows 2003 Servers. The language I use is Dutch.

After a new clean install the problem still exists in IE 7 and FF 3.0.7 as well.

Maybe it has something to do with a message in recommended settings from the sessiontest?
It says something like fopen is off.

But I can't find any guide anywhere about how to turn this on.

Are you on a free hosting server?  Most of them turn this funtion off.

Hi CWebguy,

I have no free hosting server. So I should ask them to turn it on?
I will let you know if they can/will do that.

If you have some skill, you can install Firebug addon for FF and look for errors

Just got a reply from my hoster.
They say it is very likely caused by fopen, but they can't turn it on because of spam abuse.
Bummer!!

Seems I can not use CMSMS with this hoster 

Get a new host, any reputable paid host should have this turned on.

This is not true, allow_url_fopen is a security risk to have on globally and any reputable host should actually have this OFF by default.

see: http://phpsec.org/projects/phpsecinfo/t ... fopen.html

You can set it ON for you site by editing (or creating ) a php.ini file in the /admin folder and adding the following

allow_url_fopen = on

Yeah, but they told him/her they wouldn't turn it on.

i wouldn't either but he can turn it on himself, and your right they should have told him how that is poor.

yeah, haha.  Oh well.

php.ini did not do the trick.

Now I have CMSMS installed on another server with another host (my own and not the one where the site is hosted)
Here I have no problem at all, I can move the pages without getting the popup.

Funny thing is I get a red cross while testing with fopen as well as fsockopen, so it seems my problem has noting to with the external url's.

Any suggestions what causses my problem?

I will attach a screenshot of the popup.
