Title: Server Console doesn't come up [SOLVED]
Post by: abasel on June 23, 2010, 03:34:28 AM

When I log onto the box locally, I don't get the Server console as described in: http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter6 (http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter6)

Are you logging in as admin user ?

If you log in as root user you can type
console
then press Enter key.

Otherwise you need to provide more specific details of how and as who you are logging in and what you see.

If you log in as root user you can type
console
then press Enter key.

Alternatively, you could follow exactly what is the documentation, which is to login as 'admin'.

[I will open a bug to update the documentation, so that it doesn't refer to 'auto' mode, which has been removed.]
