Can't login > Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies

[MrQwest]

Hi there...

I set up a coppermine gallery installation on a friends website.  It's only used to upload images for  her news page.  She recently contacted me saying she couldn't log in. 

After having a look, her login page says Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies along the top of the login boxes.  When you enter the login details and press "login", it goes through and says "welcome xxx" (where xxx is the username) and then reloads the page back to the coppermine index, however, it shows as not logged in.  There's no admin links, or upload links etc.

After searching through the forum, i can see similar error messages for previous versions of cpg, but not for 1.4.. So i hope someone can help me out here!

Any idea why we cant log in OR upload images?

Thank you in advance!

Post a link. Try logging in from a different pc, different browser, disabling 'security' software etc.

Hello there nibbler..

The link is http://emmafeline.com/gallery

And i have tried logging in from a PC AND a mac, running different browsers & different security software...

You should update the gallery and add your javascript to template.html only. Dumping it into a php file is asking for trouble.

and also add it after title tag

Ok, im lost here...

I can update the gallery, which i shall try later, but what javascript should be added to template.html?

As far as i was aware, this was a clean install of Coppermine and i cant remember adding anything to it?!

And bmossavari, what am i adding after the title tag?

The offending JavaScript at the top of the output

Code Select Expand

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var win=null;
function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll,pos){
if(pos=="random"){LeftPosition=(screen.width)?Math.floor(Math.random()*(screen.width-w)):100;TopPosition=(screen.height)?Math.floor(Math.random()*((screen.height-h)-75)):100;}
if(pos=="center"){LeftPosition=(screen.width)?(screen.width-w)/2:100;TopPosition=(screen.height)?(screen.height-h)/2:100;}
else if((pos!="center" && pos!="random") || pos==null){LeftPosition=0;TopPosition=20}
settings='width='+w+',height='+h+',top='+TopPosition+',left='+LeftPosition+',scrollbars='+scroll+',location=no,directories=no,status=yes,menubar=no,toolbar=no,resizable=no';
win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);}

</script>appears to be injected by the webhost, as it doesn't reside in http://emmafeline.aspectsdigital.com/gallery/themes/classic/template.html
I suggest talking to your webhost. If they actually are to blame for that script, ask them to either stop injecting their code in the silly, non-standards compliant way they do now. If they refuse, find a better webhost.
To me it semms that the JavaScript bit that I refered to above is being injected before page headers are actually being sent, therefor rendering cookies non-functional.

[MrQwest]

GauGau, thank's for that!... Any ideas what that javascript code does though?.. And also, if it does reside in any of the files on my server, what file would it be in?.. i had a look in index.php, and also in theme.php & template.html within the themes folder, but couldn't see it..

Any ideas?

You need to ask your webhost then

I'm actually having the same problem, but I don't see any sign of a javascript injection when I view-source my pages.  (I'm doing a test-build and redesign of my galleries with this one, and the whole thing's come to a screeching halt over this).

The gallery's at http://www.ardath-rekha.com/links/ and is actually going to be for a different site, once I get everything working.  But suddenly I can't log in to upload the images I need in there.  Which is... really bad.  Can you see anything in the code that would be activating this?

Edit: As an aside, another gallery I have on the same webspace ( http://www.ardath-rekha.com/images/ ) which is out-of-date and which I was planning to upgrade next, still works just fine.

Son of Edit:  And there's absolutely nothing wrong with http://www.ardath-rekha.com/dsb/ -- which is also a 1.4.8 build.  WEIRD.

you have set wrong cookie path ( /rgfclinks/ ) it should be /

[Joachim Müller]

I'm actually having the same problem,

No, your issue differs. You shouldn't have replied to this thread. Don't edit your posting, but reply to it. Do as bmossavari suggested.

[Ardath Rekha]

Thank you.  That fixed things.  Sorry for posting in the wrong place.
