In the excitement and fog of finally getting the site up, I seem to have missed a step somewhere concerning the admin account for the site. Is it the same as the admin account for MySQL ? If not, where do I reset the admin account information?
Thanks!

What exactly are you looking for? Did you read the first story on your new site?

I have the same problem and the message I get is:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@ilhas.net and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. "
I can't find any misconfiguration!!!!!! can anyone give me a hand?
Thanks

That's very unusual ... Try dropping the database and running the install script again. And/or try deleting your cookies.

I probably have the same kind of problem here .... can't login under Admin or Moderator using the default password ... takes me to the try again login screen. This is a fresh install. I've read the FAQ and perused the forums but haven't found anything that works. Removed the password in the DB and even used md5sum to create a has of 'password' to paste back into the DB, but no luck. I've noticed the cookie realm has an extra . in frot of it. When I set $_CONF['cookiedomain'] = 'www.endsley.net'; the cookie under firefox will be .www.endsley.net .... is that normal? Other cookies by other programs don't have that extra period. So at the moment I've exhausted all the ideas I have about loggin in as Admin/Moderator on a fresh install.

The only thing I can think of that would cause the password not be recognized is when it's using really exotic characters. But since the default is simply "password" that obviously doesn't apply ...
As for the extra dot: If you don't set set $_CONF['cookiedomain'] and your $_CONF['site_url'] is http://www.example.com, then Geeklog will automatically set the cookie to .example.com (with the leading dot). This is sort of a "wildcard" syntax and will match all subdomains (www.example.com, mysite.example.com, etc.).
The extra dot in your case won't hurt, but if you don't want it there, simply set $_CONF['cookiedomain'] accordingly.

Those are for the database. I think the problem was about logging in as the Geeklog Admin ...

I was running into exactly same problem - unable to login as Admin or Moderator. I am running GeekLog 1.3.11 under PHP 5.0.4 and Apache 2.0.
In my case I was able to solve it by setting the 'register_long_arrays = On' and 'register_argc_argv = On' in php.ini.
(I am not sure if I really had to set the 'register_argc_argv', but it was getting late, so I didn't wanted to take chances and set both)

Have the same problem... log in as Admin or Moderator, and get taken back to the login page... the name or password invalid. My host is using php ver 4.4.2, and the "register_argc_argv" is set to on. The "regiter_long_arrays" is not displayed in the phpinfo.php page. I don't know if it is even part of that version. All I know is I can't log in as Admin, and I cant customize it. Does anyone know what causes this?

What is your "register_globals" set to?
"register_long_arrays" was introduced in PHP 5 as I recon, it won't work in your php version

As of Geeklog 1.4.0, register_globals doesn't have to be "on" any more.
Start here:
I can't log in.[*2]

Well, I installed this thing through the cpanel of my hosting company. The version they supply is 1.3.11, so that doesn't do me a bunch of good. I have no way of upgrading it. I will probably end up just pulling the whole thing.

I don't know if this is the same problem or not. But I just finished three fresh installs of GL 1.4.0sr1.
After the installation and trying to login as Admin... I am taken right back to the login screen, no error messages, and it appears that was not able to successfully login. However, if I click on any of the links in "Topics" the login block disappears and is replaced by the admin block - a successful login?
The problem is after entering the userName: Admin and password: password... you are returned to the login making it appear as though you did not login (no error messages). This happens on every installation of 1.4.0sr1 that I have completed (4).

I had this problem once too with gl 1.4.1 cvs. After deleting and setting up the database again and running the installer one more time, it started to work like expected...

I couldn't login with admin or mod account after installing.
I changed the "register_argc_argv" and "regiter_long_arrays" to "ON" as suggested and now things seem to be working fine.
Thanks

ok, so on a fresh install of GL, i got to the index.php and try to login as admin as it says. then it tells me i typed a wrong user name or password. i do this a couple of times , look at the forums and decide that the correct action would be to drop the db and reinstall... no problem.. do that.. go to login and...

I am having trouble logging in as the admin. I am not familiar with php so a lot of what I have read thus far is a bit confusing. Anyhow, I have just installed GL using GoDaddy's auto install method. The GL site appears to be up and running, but when I type in the username and password (admin, password) I am taken to a page that tells me "You may have mistyped your login credentials. Please try logging in again below." How can Iog in as the admin?
Thanks,
Aaron
