Problem in login after installation

Hello,

I have recently installed the latest version 1.4.3, and when I try to login it doesn't show the system pages, just keeping to show the same login page without an error message.

I traced it on Firefox, and seemingly there is a "302 Moved Temporarily" error.

It tries to redirect to

/appLms/index.php?modname=login&op=confirm

then to

/appLms/index.php?r=lms/elearning/show

And it both cases the same "302 Moved Temporarily" error, so it shows the login page again without an error message.

Any idea what is the reason behind this issue?

Thank you.

Please see this post on Stakeoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/241 ... emporarily

Are you redirecting to external URLs somewhere in the code? What could be the issue? Is it dependent on some Apache configuration?

Hi

the login procedure does not redirect you to an external url . it's a nonsense .
If you try to login into formal.lms, the platform needs to retain you into the platform.
after a successful login you are redirected into the "user home page" http://yourformalmsdoamins.com/appLms/i ... rning/show

I suppose that you have some errors with the php configuration .
After login, and the redirect to the login page , are you, in any case, logged in ? if you enter the "user homepage" link in the browser can you navigate the system ? or are you redirect to the login page?

If you are not logged in, there are some problems with php session storage. Check on server the php session configurations and if php can wrte the session

Hello,

I'm hosting several websites that are using PHP sessions and redirections, this issue had never been faced over the span of years. Does it have anything to do with session settings in config.php?

The login is completed successfully, no login error messages are shown, and I checked the latest login timestamp in database. The issue is in redirection after login.

Hello

the login procedure work correclty in any version of forma.lms
Please check your apache and PHP configuration . see in the apache log file and php error log (if defined) if there are some errors.

What version of
apache , php , mysql are you using ?
Does it have anything to do with session settings in config.php?
haver you changed the session default setttings in the config ?

Please , after login and redirection to the login page can you try the following link ?
http://yourdomain.tld/pathtoformalms/in ... rning/show
(Change yourdoamin.tld and pathtoforma wiith correct value for your installation)
What happen ?
If you are redirected to the login page , you are not logged in

I tried to login then going to the page you mentioned, it gives an error message: You can't access

No I didn't change anything in the default settings in the config.php file.

I also tried to change the password through the link provided in the login page and it worked, but still doesn't login successfully.

Since Apache 3 is being deprecated, we are at version 4. Latest version of PHP and MySQL.

Apache 3 will eventually be deprecated in the short term. If this system is reliant on it then all users of the system will suffer when they move to Apache 4. I think this needs to be investigated. For example, Tomcat is no longer supported in Apache 4, are you using it? What else?

Any ideas what could be the issue?

Can it be related to Apache version or something else?

Is there anybody investigating this issue? Had anybody had it on Apache 4?

Can you tell me what specific PHP configuration you require on the server, because some features may not be enabled.

Thank you.
