XF 1.2 Cant logon at main forum page....

[Chris_H]

Each time I try to logon it takes me right back to my login page...if I browse to a specific thread I can logon but when I go back to the forums tab it logs me out again. Server error logs in admin shown below...Any ideas??

Have you recently upgraded?
It looks like some of the files may not have uploaded correctly.

You could try uploading the upgrade .zip contents again.

I tired to upgrade to 1.4 the other night, ended up having to restore from back up....everything was wiped back to scratch after the upgrade.

 

[Paul B]

It would appear you may have a discrepancy between the server files and database.

Ensure you have the correct files on the server for the version of XenForo you are running.

 

[Chris_H]

if I attempt the 1.4 upgrade again...during the file upload process, I put all of the files from the upload folder into the install folder on my server correct?

 

[Paul B]

The contents of the upload folder go where your current installation is, overwriting the existing files and folders.

 

[Chris_H]

I reuploaded the 1.4.1 upgrade files, re ran the upgrade and it completed successfully. I am still unable to logon, the server errors are gone. Any ideas? I went through and rebuilt all the caches. I can still logon if I goto a thread and logon but once I go back to the home page or the forum tab it logs me out.

I note that your site is available at two URLs:

http://www.z35spot.com/
http://z35spot.com/

I suspect you are moving between each one, which is why you are being logged out.

You will need to force to one or the other using .htaccess and then update the Board URL to reflect that.

 

[Chris_H]

not sure how that happened or what to look for in .htaccess to correct the problem. Board url is updated in Admin options correct?

 

[Chris_H]

I installed my forum in public_html, see below for my .htaccess, can you tell me what i have done wrong. Cant seem to get the www.z35spot.com to login but the z35spot.com will

I found the problem, cloudflare had been incorrectly configured and was directing to http://z35spot.com, turned off cloudflare and all my problems went away.

Thanks for all your help!!

 

[Paul B]

Good to know, thanks.

Yet more problems related to cloudflare...
