Admin not working

Hi, I just installed this great program and am trying to use the admin and I get nothing. All installed perfectly with no errors, but when I select the admin link, it just re-loads the calendar page. Where should I look?

Here is my setup: WinME running locally PWS with mySQL(4.0.13) and PHP(4.3.2.2).

Thanks
Ken

Make sure in setting up your header file you have not deleted the lines that define the popup functions:

<!-- The following functions need to be declared in the page header for the -->
<!-- javascript popups to work. -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function launchcategory(url){
window.name = 'opener';
remote = open(url, "", "resizable,status,scrollbars,width=500,height=400,l eft=300,top=100");
}
function launchevent(url){
self.name = "opener";
remote = open(url, "", "resizable,scrollbars,width=400,height=600,left=300 ,top=100");
}
function launchlog(url){
window.name = 'opener';
remote = open(url, "", "resizable,status,scrollbars,width=600,height=650,l eft=300,top=100");
}
function launchlogin(url){
window.name = 'opener';
remote = open(url, "", "resizable,status,scrollbars,width=400,height=300,l eft=300,top=100");
}
function launchuser(url){
window.name = 'opener';
remote = open(url, "", "resizable,status,scrollbars,width=650,height=600,l eft=300,top=100");
}
-->
</SCRIPT>

Thanks for the reply, I was still using the default header, I double checked it anyway. But it made no difference. I do get the log-in prompt, if I type in a wrong user or password it says it is incorrect, but if I put in the right user & password it just reloads the calendar without the admin controls. I searched the forum and while several others had similar problems they usually had some other reason like old PHP version or session cookies. What can we check next?
BTW I was born in Bethlehem,PA

Hey, I uploaded the calendar to my host -westhost - and at first I got the same symptoms as before(no login) plus some errors listed at the top. But I read in this forum that you can suppress the errors in php.ini and also I read in westhost's forum that they recommended a certain .ini file and they provided a link. So I downloaded their .ini file and put it on my hosted site and it worked! Unfortunately it didn't work on my PWS setup but I'm not complaining I think I can figure out which setting it was. Thanks for the help.

Hi, for what it's worth I found the problem in my .ini file. My output_buffering was off. When I changed it to output_buffering=4096. The admin menu appeared after a re-load. I hope this thread helps anyone else who has this error and cannot find a cure through your other threads. Thanks.

Thanks!! That's one I hadn't heard of before!

I have a work around for those who do not have access to the php.ini file, and the server is apache. In the directory that houses your calendar.php put a file called .htaccess
In this file put the following:

php_value output_buffering 4096

This will change the buffering for everything in this directory. Worked for me.

Thanks! fixed my problems.

I was not able to activate output_buffering with .htaccess, so I used at the beginning of calendar.php and at the end .


Now I have the admin links on my page.

This fixed my problem... Thanks...

You guys ROCK !!!! I was just about to give up, the .htaccess didn't work for me, but editing my calendar.php works like a champ.

Maybe this should be put into the next realease, or at least the release notes.

It will definately get added to the next release.

Your the best man!!! I was about ready to smash my monitor on the floor after spending as much time as i have getting a php calendar then not having admin functions work..

the admin login accepts any login and produces a duplicate calendar I've checked the output buffering and javascript no error's that I could see.

I was hoping this solution would work but using the htaccess file creates an apache error 500 where I can't enter the directory and the other fix with the extra php code does not do anything special either.
