login page not working

[roldahayes]

Hi

 

I have a database installed that can accept a csv file.

when I installed onto a new server, it wont upload.  is there anything obvious in the phpinfo that could be causing this? also, the login page wont work on this server.

just reloads the page again when submitting the user and pass

 

<?php
/* 	

	filename: 		login.php
 	version: 		1.1
	last revision:	23/11/02
	description:	admin logon authentication - password check and session creation	

*/ 




if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS['submit'])
{
?>
	<script language="JavaScript">
	<!--
	function validateForm(form)
	{ 
		if (form.username.value == "")
		{ 
		   alert("Please Enter a Username."); 
		   form.username.focus( ); 
		   return false; 
		}
		else if (form.password.value == "")
		{ 
		   alert("Please Enter a Password."); 
		   form.password.focus( ); 
		   return false; 
		}	
	}
	-->
	</script>
	<style type="text/css">

thanks

instead of $HTTP_POST_VARS, try $_POST

 

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS to $_SESSION

 

and I don't know what these are used for:

$AUTORACKPASSWORD

$AUTORACKUSERNAME

[roldahayes]

no that didn't work,

 

the autorack bit is just how the login was coded it points to a user and pass in a config file...

Looking at the phpinfo page, your new server has register_globals off. Did the old one have it enabled? That could cause a lot of problems. I would print the info() on both servers and look through for any settings that are different, then look them up in the manual to see what they do. This might lead you to a solution.

[roldahayes]

globals off on both servers so thats not it....

 

[roldahayes]

also it works on another server with them on so that def cant be it?

 

This is driving me crazy!!!!
