Just installed ezPublish without any apparent problems but when i try to access the admin section, i get no login window and/or admin functions at all.

the urls seems to be correct:

<b>AdminURL:</b>
www.mydomain.com/ezpublishinstall/index.php/corporate_admin

<b>UserURL:</b>
www.mydomain.com/ezpublishinstall/index.php/corporate

but both show the public section without any login box or link

Am i missing sth here ?

Thanks for any help

This is useing the latest version 3.3.4

ok it gets even weirder:

just reinstalled everything using new database. installed 3 different site (Intranet/Corporate/Plain) into 3 different databases.

When i try to access any one of the sites public or admin sections i ALWAYS end up on the public site of the Corporate version. No way to acess any of the other 2 sites (neither Pub nor admin) and still no acess to the admin section.

Anyone ?

It sounds like your sites are being setup to use the same site design for both site accesses (or atleast this is the easiest explaination I can think of). Go into:

settings/siteaccess/[site]_admin/site.ini.append
and check that you have:
[DesignSettings]
SiteDesign=admin

Then go into:

settings/override/site.ini.append.php
and check there is no "SiteDesign=" entry.

Clear your caches and try again :)

Hi James, thx for your reply,

unfortunately that doesn't solve it. Sitedesign is admin and there is no overide for the sitedesign setting.

It is not a browsercache problem either, tried that as well.

i am mystified ...

Hhmmm it is strange. It must be something to do with being unable to access the admin sitedesign though - afterall the admin site is just another layout for looking at the same data... If I were you I'd go back to my override/site.ini.append.php, the siteaccesses must not be setup correctly/they must not be identifying which siteaccess is being called. Try changing the access to something different (URI, port..) and checking the references (i.e. hostname/port to siteaccess).

I suppose you have PHP as CGI and apache 1.3, right?

The only solution i found so far is to use 3.4 (i use alpha 3)
There is support for PHP-CGI and apache 1.3 built-in. Url's will be with '?' in them, eg yourdomain.com/myezpub/index.php?/Blog_admin, but it will work.

In case you have apache 2 and PHP-CGI, there is a work-around for ez Publish 3.3.4, search forums for cgi.fix_pathinfo or accesspathinfo (don't remember exactly at the moment)

HTH,
