Hello All..
I really could use some help here... I installed PN .750 on a box-stock Redhat 9 system. There were no errors during the installation and the database was created properly. I removed the install directory and install.php per the installation instructions and accessed my newly created site. I logged in as Admin but I cannot get the Admin menu. I've tried logging in on index.php and user.php pages with the same result - The login succeeds but no admin menu. I've tried a fresh install a number of times and always have the same result.
Can anyone shed some light on what it is that I'm missing or doing wrong?
I'm at Frustration Level 5 with this. Browsers are IE6 and Opera 7.54.
Thanks and any and all help!
Regards,
Jan

Hello and thank you for the reply...
Are you saying http://<my site="site" name="name">/admin.php ? Same thing occurs. Check the perms and the /var/www/html/admin.php is 644. I tried 777, no joy...
Thanks,
Jan</my>

Is there any error? Or is it just a Blank Page?

No errors and the page is not blank. I just get returned to the initial welcome page after PN says
logging me in. It says 1 registered user online, but there is no admin selection on the left-hand side.
Thanks,
Jan

Misery loves company... I installed PN this morning and am having the same exact problem - no Administrative link appears on the main menu when I log in on my administrative account. And I know the account is there because not only can I log in, I can go to the Members page and see it. (And when I try logging in with the default administrator login, which I was pretty sure was blown out during installation, I'm denied access.) So I'll be watching this conversation, and if I figure it out in the meantime I'll post what I found.

I've spent pretty much all day on this problem and have gotten nowhere. I've completely uninstalled and re-installed three times, and the Administration link still does not show up in the main menu.

Sounds like a log in problem, not a permissions one. Are you using IE? if so, turn off the privacy controls.

Firewalls and third party software can affect this as well.
Also, accessing your site through a masked domain name can cause it.

Unfortunately, using a different browser is not viable when the majority of the world seems to use IE. I've tried Opera 7.54 without any success. The code should work and I believe that the authors intended it to work with all mainstream browsers. The problem has to lie elsewhere.
Any other suggestions, please?
Thanks,
Jan

Well, if this helps you at all, Jan, I just tried Opera 7.54, Mozilla Firefox and regular Mozilla (whatever the difference is,) and the latest Netscape, and it turns out the only browser that DOESN'T show me the Administration link is IE. I even tried putting my site under "Trusted Sites" in IE and that didn't help. I'd still like to get the problem fixed because I am in a situation where I am pretty sure some of the administrators will be using IE.
