i have exactly the same problem since i copied my working guestbook files to another server... that means i didn't installed it, but the guestbook works. the admin doesn't, were does it come from?

question has been asked about a dozen times, and the answer has been given a dozen times. probably why people can't be bothered with this forum, because nobody bothers to read old posts, and most people don't feel like repeating themselves.

you know it is funny, I bumped the post for you all to read, and I guess you still didn't read it.

make sure you read all the way through this post.

What you will more than likely have to do, is what I had to do and that is drop the admin table and reimport it. The problem is is that the guestbook uses a session and a time stamp. So if you were to just change the password in the guestbook, it wouldn't always work. When you drop the table and add it again, the encrypted password and admin name will match the timestamp and session.

read through the post though, and it covers just about all the topics

thank you for your help, but unfortunatly nothing works... i dropped the _auth table and insert it again with the original test/123... access to the blue page ok, but when i ask general settings for example, i get back to the login page. I tried also to remove the password from the table, accesing the admin only with the username... same problem!

however i noticed one thing:
when i insert the test/123 user in the table, it inserts a session code and "LAST_VISIT" (1013100791).... then i login in my admin/blue screen/back to login/etc.... when i get back to my table, "LAST_VISIT" was changed to (00000000000000)

what do you think about it?

hope you can help me!!
thx

OK, I just tested this to make sure on my testbook that I have for experiments.

I completly droped the table, and deleted it.

I then did a sql import with the txt file that just has the admin stuff in it. and it worked for me.

here is the code that I used



make sure that the table is deleted complely. Then upload this code in a text file and have it re-create it. Also make sure you close all open browsers, and then open a new browser and surf to your admin.

If this doesn't work for you, I have a test session file that will see if sessions are being passed properly from your server....let me know

Instead of bitching at people that they're too lazy to look stuff up, answer the question or at least point them in the right direction to find the information. This forum is to help people, not to hinder them.

Since you evidently know where the answer lies in some previous thread then give a little hand instead of a lot of attitude.

Hey dork, kind of get old answering the same questions over and over again.

I don't have time for lazy people.....why waste other peoples time, if someone has taken the time already to solve the problem...kind of like trying to re-invent the wheel.

then when you answer the question, you don't get thanks but complaints......so I think I am done helping

kinda getting old listening to you wine.....do you serve cheese too!

Why don't you not answer and quit being a pain in the ass.

Assistance is the key to a forum, evidently you just take the ass part to heart.

You say you're tired of answering the same questions....good !

Here's a new one for you. Are you really an asshole or do you just act like one

please guest9999 don't stop people when they are trying to help (even if i agree with you for the first answer "question has been asked about a dozen times,...")

_____________


what you explain is exactly what i did before, so this doesn't help me much... still the same problem
what i can't understand is why my code was working on a server, i ftp-downloaded the files to my computer then ftp-uploaded them to a new server... (i didn't forget to recreate the 2 CHMOD and transfer the db)
the fact is that i didnt install the guestbook, it's a copy, so maybe i forgot something!...

anyway, is it possible to use an unsecured, "unsessionned" admin (i only use "easy admin")? what should i do for that?

OK, here is session test script to see if sessions are working correctly on your server.



run paste this into a new text file and save as session_test.php and upload to your server and run.
