server-manager access problem
« on: January 23, 2003, 08:13:43 PM »
I'm working with SME 5.5

Recently the following problem came up. We haven't installed anything on the server, accept adding users.
We cannot access the server-manager anymore. We have tried it with several browsers, (login, 3 times untill authorisation failure) and also via the console through the admin-panel. (here lynx says Bad URL ???)
We've tried expanding the templates for httpd.conf again and restarted httpd and httpd-admin. Finnaly we rebooted but no result.
Anybody any ideas?

Maybe the problem can be resolved by using an aproach I found on http://www.minddigger.com.

Login as root

# chmod 550 /etc/e-smith/web/panels/
# chmod 550 /etc/e-smith/web/functions/
# chmod 550 /etc/e-smith/web/common/
# chmod 755 /etc/e-smith/events/actions/

Afterwards you should have access to server manager through your webrowser again.

Hope this solves it for you.

Tnx.

It didn't help but I've narrowed the problem down to an autentification error.

I've started a new thread about this.
