Setup Password Not Accepted
- General
Posted by Gary Gale (Wednesday March 20 2002 @ 03:36PM EST) views: 352 |
Trying to install 0.5.3 on a RHL 7.2 box running mySQL 11.7, PHP 4.1.2 and Apache 1.3.22.
I've edited common/include.inc.php correctly (I think) but despite that, when I enter the password I just get the original setup/index.php page re-displayed.
I've tried using "password" as that's been referenced in other posts but all to no avail.
My include/common.inc.php is ...
/*== DATABASE CONFIGURATION ==*/
$G_DB = "PHPWEBLOG"; # database name
$G_HOST = "localhost"; # hostname
$G_PORT = "3306"; # port
$G_USER = "root"; # username
$G_PASS = "not-my-real-password"; # password
/*== SETUP / INSTALLATION PASSWORD ==*/
/*== YOU WANT TO CHANGE THIS TO SOMETHING UNIQUELY PRIVATE! ==*/
$SETUP_PW = "phpweblog"; # setup password
/*== DIRECTORY PATHS (no trailing slashes) ==*/
$G_PATH = "/home/web/htdocs/index.html"; // full directory path
$G_URL = "http://www.vicchi.org";
/*== END CONFIGURATION ==*/
include_once("/G_PATH/include/init.inc.html");
Any ideas or workarounds?

Do you have cookies enabled in your browser?
Do you have MD5 support enabled in PHP? What about your magic_quotes setting?
And you are typing in "phpweblog" not "not-my-real-password"?

Hi Tony,
cookies are on (originally they were set to originating from the same server but I changed that to accept all cookies - just to see if it made a difference - it didn't!)
The password being typed in is definately the one specified in the include/common.inc.php file.
The "magic_quotes" setting is "On" for "magic_quotes_gpc" and "Off" for "magic_quotes_runtime" in my php.ini file.
As far as MD5 support goes - that's a new one on me - I couldn't find any reference to MD5 support in the ./configure options when I built PHP nor in my php.ini file ... am I missing something here?

The info at http://phpweblog.org/stories.php?story=02/02/25/7822644 helped me solve this exact problem.
Ensure you are running and Apache is using PHP 4.1.2.
Then edit the php.ini file and ensure:
allow_call_time_pass_reference = On
Secondly, make sure your variable_order = "EGPCS"
Lastly, set register_globals = On
This resolved it for me, thanks to that anonymous posted who provided this solution.

Outstanding! It worked, I edited php.ini as you described and suddenly everything sprung into action.
Many, many thanks for this - now all I have to do is one major customisation/configuration job!
Once again - thanks to Patrick and everyone else who contributed to this - much appreciated doesn't even begin to say ...
Gary

I'm having this exact same problem, however I have php setup according to this, with php sessions and what not but to no avail. My browser supports and is accepting cookies also. Not sure what's going on. I'm using God/admin as specified in the readme.
phpinfo for the box can be found here:

and

Since you are running MyPHPBLog not PHPWebLog I'm going to find it a bit hard to fix.
Good to see someone else running Apache on Mac OS though.
You might want to visit http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/myphpblog-general to search their mailing list archive or join. They don't appear to have an online forum.
