My server runs off of NT - I'm trying to test a fresh install before transfering my existing board over. I followed the the instructions and had my host set the correct permissions for all folders. All the test files came back positive so I know everything is installed correctly. Here is where my problem starts.

I created an admin acount as requested, returned to the cp.cgi file and tried to access the newly created account. I log in fine, but can't access any of the admin settings. (general settings, styles, ect) It kicks me back to the control pannel.

I tried creating a new account to see if I could even post on the forum itself, and I am unable too. I kicks me back to the log in screen.

I did a test install on my current host which uses unix and I had no problems. I also noticed that I see the following on the very top of the screen when ever I log in, or try to do anything:

Quote
Set-Cookie: session2452097.0229=NEW&; path=/ Set-Cookie: login2452097.0229=07-05-2001%2011%3A34%20PM&2452096.2334; path=/; expires=Sat, 06-Jul-2002 07:34:53 GMT Date: Fri, 06 Jul 2001 07:34:53 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
I'm not sure what the proplem is, but I saw a thread which I marked about the NT server trying to write to html before ubb does. But is there something else that I'm missing? I'm out of idea's on how to fix this.

ubb v 6.04c (registered)

Post the exact URL to your cp.cgi

Upload ubb6_test.cgi and hello.cgi from the help directory of the zip file to your cgi directory and run from your browser to help you with permissions and critical file locations.

Charles, I can't speak to my host with out knowing what the problem is <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Hal, ubb6_test.cgi came back with all "ok" showing for each directory. I get a hello world from hello.cgi. Here's the link to my control pannel Clicky Clicky

I have checked with my host and all permission's are set correctly for all folders.

I can't help you with this. The server is sending the cookie improperly and I am not savvy enough with the server setup to provide a solution. Some servers send their own headers. If that is the case, the sysadmin will have to turn that off so UBB can work properly. I think you will have to take the trouble ticket route for more advice, but it is not likely to be answered until after the holiday weekend.

**update**

After consulting with my host, it turns out it was a cookie problem that was preventing me from using the board. I recall other people having this same problem in a different thread that Hal had posted about. Everything is working as it should. (thank god)

Again, thanks for all your help. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

A cookie problem that the host fixed? I'm having the same problem and want to know if it's anything I'm doing wrong.

If you are having the same problem (the Set-Cookie header printing to screen), please speak to your HOST, it is an issue with their configuration, not the UBB.

Please, in the future, do not attach your own issues to a thread started by someone else. This practice is called me-tooing, and is frowned upon.
