You login and you get the message: you are now connected. But you are immediately back to login page. What happens?
Several options:
- Your browser. Try with an other one and check if it happens too.
- Cookies. Accept cookies must be enabled
- Your browsers cache. Eventually empty cache and try again.
- On several sites the www disappears in the URL. And with some hosters, the site doesn't work without www. Check your mainfile.php at the root of your site; it must contain the www where it's talking about URL:
No way to login? Always error message even if sure that your login data is ok? Several options why this occour, and the most current is this:
You changed the start page of your site, but the page you set for start has no access-right for guests, even for reading. How to fix this?
In your browser you type: /yoursite/user.php, so you can login
Then you go to admin panel and you fix access rights for the module defined as to be displayed on START.
Your site, suddenly, only displays a blank page. What's happening?
Well, mostly it's related to mainfile.php. Check it! It must contain all information, hostname, path, and so on.
If you are sure: mainfile.php is ok, then check your CHMOD
If CHMOD also ok, re-upload your file without mainfile.php because often, problems occours only because some file upload failed.
- upload your files to your server
- upload your database. That means connect to your site via PHPMyAdmin, and go to SQL - panel. Browse your harddisk to your DB-backup and click execute. It may take some time, depending size of database.
- check mainfile.php, path, username, password and so on
- check CHMODS
- go to Admin/Modules and update System
- verify if anything works fine
This explanation comes from the old runcms.org site and it was written by Half-Dead, Neon & Bob
RunCMS 1.5 comes with an .htaccess file configuring rewrite modus.
Some hosters don't allow some configurations, or they are already configured to rewrite modus. If you get an error message like this.
500 Internal Server Error
open your .htaccess file and comment out the following lines
--------------------------------------------
php_flag register_globals off
php_flag display_errors on
php_value error_reporting 7
--------------------------------------------
to
--------------------------------------------
#php_flag register_globals off
#php_flag display_errors on
#php_value error_reporting 7

If you've an exoops/xoops site you may notice that some xoops modules work and some dont...there is no warning between any modules...just some work and some dont...So you may be wondering if there's something to edit to make the xoops modules to work on exoops.
The fact is that it's depending from every module individually - some modules would be work, but usually - should not.
Their are DIFFERENT sibling systems, but have one parent - XOOPS (take a look at History of RunCMS )
Modules from XOOS2 usually need special adaptation for RunCMS,and this task must be solved with rather experienced PHP programmers.
