I've installed and everything went ok till I tried changing the admin password. it spit out this error:

Warning: fopen(/home/southflo/public_html/logs/error.log): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/southflo/public_html/lib-common.php on line 1576
1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE gl_users.uid = 2 AND .uid = 2' at line 1

You get the warning about error.log because you didn't change the permissions for the log directory (and the two files in there) properly. Please re-read that section of the installation instructions.

The second error irritates me. Is this displayed in your browser? It shouldn't do that - Geeklog is supposed to only say "there was an SQL error - please check your error.log". And error.log would then hold the complete SQL request that caused the error. Without that information, it's hard to tell what the problem is.

i've changed /logs and files to 777 still same error. i can't recreate the table without using the web installer. originally i tried creating the tables manually using query but it would spit errors at me everytime. this isn't cool.

Nothing has been turned off - you just need to make sure you're logged in when you post. For your last two posts, you were not logged in.
