hi!
i am experiencing big problems with the login of registered users. depending on the browser one uses, the errors differ:
mozilla on linux lets you login without problems.
konqueror on linux makes coppermine say "it seems your browser doesnt accept cookies", though i allowed all cookies in the settings.
internet explorer on windows makes coppermine show the login screen saying "welcome, aton" but then the redirection redirects to a wrong page which gives a 404...
i am having similar problems with phpbb, there konqueror and ie will let me login correctly, while mozilla wont.
what am i doing wrong?
What did you set as cookie path in coppermine config? In IE, there are privacy settings you might want to check. Please post a link to your page (together with a test user account if possible - non-admin!).

I experience the same problem with Internet Explorer. Mozilla and Opera both work, IE won't. It's just as described above. I did not set any cookie path, it's still as it was as default ( / )
If you want to have a look, go to http://www.fottergrafs.de.tt/
I created a test account as well, username & password is test
Hope you can help me.

These cookie problems are often caused by you pc clock being wrong.
The problem occurs with several users and only with IE. What do you mean by pc clock? The time? Even when IE is set to accept all cookies it does not work. It even says that the browser does not accept cookies.
actually, your whole login mechanism doesn't work because you use some tricks to hide your true url. Your initial page is not located at http://www.fottergrafs.de.tt/ , but here: http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/
When loging in, the redirect tries to send me to /roland_deschain/fottergrafs/, which doesn't exist, so I'm being sent to a 404 page.
Basically, you have set up your subdomain stuff wrong. Fix this first.
GauGau
P.S. You're using the outdated version cpg1.2.1, you should upgrade to cpg1.3.x asap. I moved your posting to the proper support board.
Hi GauGau,
I changed the url-cloaking and it now shows the true url. As well, I upgraded to cpg 1.3.1. Nevertheless I get the 404 page. Is it possible to change the redirect options in coppermine? But basically I think that this problem is due to my free online space provider. But it isn't that bad, in opera I can log in, get the 404, return to the main page and reload it and after that I'm logged is. This isn't a great solution, but at least I can log in. In IE, on the other hand, this doesn't work and I still get the message that my browser doesn't accept cookies even if I change the settings to accept all cookies. I wonder why this only happens with Internet Explorer.
Greets,
Roland
post your cookie settings in coppermine config and the "target address for ecards".
GauGau
gaugau, i am using a frame redirection to hide my true url, too ... but i want to keep that. is it possible to hack some lines in the coppermine source to redirect the ppl to the correct page?
if that works, i think then the cookies will work, too, because i.e. and mozilla dont say anything about problems, just redirect to 404...
another problem is that when i try to turn a picture by for example 90° in the gallery, then i get an error:
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /gallery/picEditor.php.
Reason: Document contains no data
... this is because of the wrong address, too, i think.
i would really like to keep my ugly real address hidden from the browsers address line. :/

GauGau
Cookie settings:
Name of the cookie used by the script (when using bbs integration, make sure it differs from the bbs's cookie name): cpg11d
Path of the cookie used by the script : /
I don't think I changed anything here, it should still be the default settings.

Target address for the 'See more pictures' link in e-cards ?`

GauGau
Sorry, forgot that: Target address was http://www.fottergrafs.de.tt, but I changed it to http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/
Roland
thanks, i changed the link in the e-cards thing and it now works perfectly. i dont use any ecards though, so i dont know what the problem was ... anyways thanks a lot
This heading is mis-named, as it is used by lots of the code, not just ecards, and causes problems if not correct.
It is being re-labelled for the next version.
After changing the e-card-Link the redirect-Problem seems to be gone, but it is still not possible to log in with Internet Explorer. When I log in it says Hello XXX, then I'm redirected to the main page but logged out again.
Greets,
Roland
mh logging in, posting comments and everything works now.
but when logged in as admin and trying to edit a picture with picEditor, i see the picture, then i choose rotate 90° and 100% quality, click on "save" and get :
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /gallery/picEditor.php.
Reason: Document contains no data
Apache Server Port 80
We have a one question per thread policy on this board. As your initial issue with login was solved, post a new thread.
GauGau
Hm, seems like I was to fast in saying that the redirection works now. I tried again today and got the redirection problem again, even though I changed the "Link in eCard-address to the proper url of the main page.
As well, it is still not possible to log in with Internet Explorer. Opera works, I do not get redirected to the main page but I can reload it and am logged in after that.
Any ideas what might still be wrong?
Roland
the redirection points to /roland_deschain/fottergrafs/, which is not there. Why don't you create it and add a redirector there. The whole issue comes from your "strange" usage of subdomains, trying to cloak the real url. I recommend dropping it entirely.
GauGau
OK, the redirection is now set to http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/index.php, this is the original url of the main page (got this wrong when I used http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/, sorry). Redirection seems to work now. But the problem with the Internet Explorer remains. It tells me "Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies", lets me login, says hi XXX, redirects me to the start page and there I'm not logged in. My clock works properly and there are several other IE-Users with the same problem. Other browsers work fine. (I'm telling everybody to quit using IE anyway ;), but most don't want to use anything else.)
Roland
what did you set as cookie path?
GauGau
Still as before:
Cookie settings:
Name of the cookie used by the script (when using bbs integration, make sure it differs from the bbs's cookie name): cpg11d
Path of the cookie used by the script : /
I didn't change anything there from the default settings since I have no idea what this means...
try settings the path to .yourdomain.tld
GauGau

try settings the path to .yourdomain.tld
What would this be in my case? the url of the page is http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/index.php, so I tried this as well as http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/. But both did not work. Is it possible that these problems have to do with my webspace? The page is located on free webspace, that's why I have this somewhat strange url.
Greets,
Roland
yes, I guess your webhost has a rather strange configuration of your subdomain. Try both .funpic.de and .fottergrafs.de.tt. I recommend you skip the strange redirection url http://www.fottergrafs.de.tt/ completely - after all, it doesn't look that professional to me ;)
GauGau
Sorry, both does not work. I still get this message: Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies
It's so strange that just the almighty ::) IE won't work...
Roland
did you have a look at IE's privacy settings? Did you add both domains to the trusted sites?
GauGau
And have you checked that your computer internal clock is correct, both time and date.
This can cause cookie problems if wrong.

GauGau
Yes, both domains are among the trusted sites and besides that I tried to set IE to 'accept all cookies'. Both does not have any influence.
Time and date are correct as well.
Greets,
Roland
@SandrasXXX, I see on another thread you have cured your problem. Please make sure you annotate all threads where you have posted about this problem. This is one of the reasons why we don't like cross/double posting.
There are many apps out there for looking after your clock. Try google.
@Roland_Deschain, do you have a firewall running. Try turning it off and see if it works then.
I'm in a university network, there is no way I can switch of the firewall. But other users tried it from there home-pc and did not have a firewall installed. They have the same problem with IE.
Roland
"Real" firewalls shouldn't be a problem. Casper was refering to software usually labelled as "personal firewall" like Kerio or Zonealarm that runs on a local PC and handles port trafic. In your case I'm convinced that the strange subdomain usage and redirector cause your troubles. Like I said: don't "cloak" your URL with subdomains and redirectors and you should be fine.
GauGau
I have no personal firewall running and I dropped all the redirections. Within coppermine, all urls are the original ones and I access the page via http://roland_deschain.funpic.de/fottergrafs/index.php , which is the url that's provided by my free space provider.
But now I have an even bigger problem. Today I can't log in with any browser. I don't know what caused this, the last thing I changed was the cookie path.
Roland
You set your path to 'r.funpic.de' which is less than usefull. You'll have to fix it in the db directly with phpmyadmin or whatever you use. (cpg131_config table).
this worked, thanks a lot!!!
