Geeklog Community,

I just installed Geeklog 1.6.0sr2 on a Linux system with PHP 5.2.6, MySQL 4.1 and Apache 2.2. The PHP runs in CGI Mode. Register_Globals is ON. Permissions allow php script to write to files and directories.

The installation went fine. I deleted the install directory. I changed the Admin password.

When I try to change the inistal story, the changes aren't saved. There are not any error messages. The PHP logs and the Geeklog logs don't have any entries.

I had this same problem when I installed Geeklog 1.5.2sr4 and solved it. However, I don't remember what I did.

I removed enctype="multipart/form-data" from the file layout/professional/admin/story/storyeditor.thtml. it did not help.

What is the problem?

Jim

Are you using the Professional theme or a custom theme? In the latter case, try switching to Professional and see if that helps.

P.S. register_globals = on is no longer required, at least not for Geeklog itself.

Thank you.

I'm using the default theme. The only layout theme is professional.

Referrers then, maybe? Our CSRF protection (since Geeklog 1.5.0) requires that referrers are enabled and correct.

See the latter half of this discussion (the 2009 posts - note that the first posts are from 2003 and out of date now).

I created the ref.php file at http://geeklog.uuism.org/ref.php

It reported Referrer: http://geeklog.uuism.org/ref.php

Thanks for the help.

Also, I activated $_CONF['rootdebug'] = true;

Hmm, no immediate idea I'm afraid. Does this only affect stories or all of the admin panels (blocks, topics, static pages, ...)?

bye, Dirk
