Hi,

I just installed SilverStripe (and it said it was successful after I met all the requirements for installation). I cannot login however. I've looked at the Member table in my database and can see the username and password I selected, and can even copy & paste directly from the db (since the password isn't encrypted) but everytime I try to login I get the following error message:

I'm sorry, but you can't access that part of the CMS. If you want to log in as someone else, do so below

Any suggestions on how to get past this?

I tried the flush command, that didn't work. :/

I deleted my site cookies and when I tried logging in again it welcomed me as Admin but there were no links anywhere on the page, it simply said: "You're logged in as Admin." in red and beneath the message was the email/password login boxes again.

After that I tried to go to a CMS management url, like mysite.com/admin or mysite.com/admin/assets and it just tells me "you can't access that part of the cms", same as the previous error.

I have changed the permissions of the "mysite" folder to be owned by nobody and writable by nobody, but alas, no luck.

I really, really liked the looks of Silverstripe, but with a time crunch on the project I may have to go to another one just to get it done if I can't get past this initial hurdle (a real drag 'cause it looked about perfect).

Which version of PHP are you using? Someone had this issue on PHP 5.0.5, and it is fixed in the daily build so you might wanna try that and see how you get on.

Okay! I'm in. I dropped the database from my first installation, recreated it, and wiped out the contents of the httproot folder and started anew... and it worked with yesterday's daily build.

Thanks!

Now I'm onto a whole other challenge -- creating my own template(s)
