Looping Login Problem

What is the Cookie path in General Admin Configuration in your ACP? If it isn't set to / you might want to try it. Changing this setting will force all of your members to have to clear the cookies to your board in their browsers...



If that doesn't work, then you can edit your easymod_install.php file and remove the following section, which causes more harm than good:

Code: Select all

//
// Only administrators here, please
//
if( !$userdata['session_logged_in'] )
{
	redirect(append_sid("login.$phpEx?redirect=admin/mods/easymod/easymod_install.$phpEx", true));
}
if( $userdata['user_level'] != ADMIN )
{
	message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['Not_admin']);
}

Let me know how it goes...

[Demyx]

the cookie path is / like it should be
the second one you said im trying out as soon as i find what line that's at out of 2000 some...

EDIT: nvm i found it

[Demyx]

[Nightrider]

What is it doing now???

[Demyx]

still the same thing

[Nightrider]

Is it going to a Host page or one of your forum pages???

[Demyx]

its going to the host page, not one of the forum pages, the front page of 5gbfree.com

Ok, this sounds like a permissions problem. Does your host require that the file permissions be set to anything other than 644???

CHMOD Permissions

Do you have the permissions of the folders set to 755 and the files set to 644? On most boards, the folder permissions must be set to 755 and the file permissions to 644. However on some, such as Awardspace and Lycos, the folder and file permissions MUST BE set to 755. Check some of your other non-EM file and folder permissions to determine what works on your site...

You can probably find instructions on how to do that at the site that provides your FTP application. I'm sure it varies from application to application...

I use SmartFTP. All you need to do is click on a folder or file in the right hand viewer and choose Properties/CHMOD or Alt+Enter



Then you can either enter the value, like 755 or 644, or you can click on the read, write, execute options, which do the same thing...

[Demyx]

yes there all 755
