hi guys,really sorry if this has been posted before,or in the wrong section,but i would like some help on this problem i believe to be a bug.

i have guests cant browse the forum as you will see by the picture

but when i enter my user name and password,minutes to stay logged in ie 60/120/180 or even longer,and having always stay logged in box ticked
i get a error page

after the second error page comes up,i retry site url and am logged in.

Download repair_settings.php from Simple Machines, and make sure all the paths are right.

Make sure you have it so guests can browse the forums via permissions in the admin panel as well.

Scooby · « **Reply #2 on:** August 28, 2011, 06:05:16 PM »

tried:repair settings does not work,when u do the repair,u then need to reinstall sp.

tried:fresh install smf then fresh install of sp same thing happens
this just goes back and forth dont matter which way i try.

plus i do not want guests to view the forum,i need it to be register up or login (members)

thankyou for your replay

ccbtimewiz · « **Reply #3 on:** August 28, 2011, 06:08:38 PM »

Oh sorry, I thought you were saying you wanted guests to browse.

Anyways, you are entirely sure all the paths are correct through repair_settings.php?

Is there any errors in your Server Log?

Scooby · « **Reply #4 on:** August 28, 2011, 06:20:00 PM »

no errors there.

paths are all correct.
Portal Mode front page
Forum URL http://www.mydomain.co.uk
SMF Directory /home/domain/public_html
Sources Directory /home/domain/public_html/Sources
Cache Directory /home/domain/public_html/cache

dont want to advertise website so i put domain where it should be ok

once again thankyou

What are you using to prettify your URLs?

Scooby · « **Reply #6 on:** August 29, 2011, 12:02:31 PM »

not using anything,host provide the site,uploaded smf extracted smf 2.0 installed,after install uploaded sp via package manager installed with no errors.

the only other thing that has been installed is a battlefield theme by Akyhne

thankyou

This is not a problem with SimplePortal, contact your hosting or ask on SimpleMachines.org

Scooby · « **Reply #8 on:** August 29, 2011, 12:21:15 PM »

already been asked on sm http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=450514.0

but will contact host to see if theres a problem.

but what would i ask them ?

ccbtimewiz · « **Reply #9 on:** August 29, 2011, 12:27:07 PM »

Ask them what is filtering your URLs

Scooby · « **Reply #10 on:** August 31, 2011, 09:04:39 AM »

sorry for the waiting on the replay,host did`nt replay until late last night and i was`nt around.

anyway the replay i had was,

I have fully disable the mod-sec on your account now , it was still running from the last time with a minimal list.
Please let me know , also , be aware you site is not protected now

but still getting the same error page,and now sites not secure,grrrrr

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #11 on:** August 31, 2011, 12:25:25 PM »

something else is going on.
Are you using pretty URLs?

The url should be /index.php?action=forum, not /action=forum.

Either SMF is making up a bad URL for some reason, or else the "index?" part is getting filtered out before SMF gets hold of it.
We need to figure out which one of these things is going on.

Please try the following URL: http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.php?action=forum

And report back what happens next.

Scooby · « **Reply #12 on:** August 31, 2011, 12:50:42 PM »

not using any as posted on: August 29, 2011, 10:02:31 AM »

tried using http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.php?action=forum

know no admin area no simple portal access,unable to undo changes via ap,sp

modify reason: just had to use the repair settings php to put back,still have the same problem

modify reason 2: uploaded query string.php

ccbtimewiz · « **Reply #13 on:** August 31, 2011, 01:20:11 PM »

Attach ./Sources/QueryString.php to your next post

Scooby · « **Reply #14 on:** August 31, 2011, 04:51:33 PM »

check last post

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #15 on:** September 01, 2011, 11:34:12 AM »

When you try the URL containing
index.php?action=forum

What URL does your browser say you have landed on?

Scooby · « **Reply #16 on:** September 01, 2011, 12:18:56 PM »

it went to the forum,but when on that page,i could not go anywhere else on the site like admin panel,simple portal areas,home page was forum,when it should ov been the portal

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #17 on:** September 01, 2011, 12:30:29 PM »

OK. when you go to /index.php?action=forum, please
1) report what the URL of the page was when you landed there
2) Show us what the links on the menu buttons looked like
Do you have pretty urls turned on?

Scooby · « **Reply #18 on:** September 01, 2011, 01:29:12 PM »

http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.php = home page guest must sign in or register

after username password http://www.mydomain.co.uk/action=forum = get the error page as on first post

changed the url to http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.php?action=forum clicked save

and then am here /index.php?action=forum/index.php?action=admin;area=serversettings;sa=database;save

which is the forum area

i then click home tab = its the forum area
i click forum tab = its the forum area
i get this with every menu tab its just the forum showing
i try my profile tab samething
i click on admin tab or any of the drop down boxes samething
no matter what tab i press it doesnt go anywhere just the forum
i press the log out tab doesnt log me out lol

now i need to redo repair setting to fix,man this is a ball...

(Forgot to mention i do not use any pretty urls) as said in previous posts

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #19 on:** September 01, 2011, 03:19:17 PM »

Do you have any mods installed?

Scooby · « **Reply #20 on:** September 01, 2011, 04:23:12 PM »

Aeva-Media-1.4w
Bad Company 3 theme, by Akyhne

tried with and with out it...

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #21 on:** September 07, 2011, 08:02:03 AM »

OK. so this problem does not seem to be caused by a mod.
What does your .htaccess file say?

Scooby · « **Reply #22 on:** September 07, 2011, 09:45:47 AM »

there is a file there,but its blank no info in there @ public_html location

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #23 on:** September 07, 2011, 02:55:32 PM »

Are you using a standalone portal page?
If so, please see the documentation about setting up the standalone portal page:
http://simpleportal.net/index.php?action=docs;area=set_up_standalone_portal

Scooby · « **Reply #24 on:** September 11, 2011, 02:50:16 AM »

by changing to 'full/path/to/forum' i then get 3 errors on the following line

Code: [Select]

// Should be the full path!
$forum_dir = 'full/path/to/forum';

// Let them know the mode.
$sp_standalone = true;

// Hmm, wrong forum dir?
if (!file_exists($forum_dir . '/index.php'))

so know i have changed the setting so the guests can view forums,which logging in and out there is no problem.

AngelinaBelle · « **Reply #25 on:** September 12, 2011, 01:31:17 PM »

I am sorry. I don't think I understand.
Can you please show me what the line in your portal standalone file looks like, the one that starts with
$forum_dir

Thanks
