I am having the following problem and it is driving me nuts.
I am on ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
I have just downloaded the master version from github and followed the instructions with installation script.
Evertyhing worked smoothly, no problem. I have installed on /var/www/xpml/httpdocs and updated install.conf
PLAYSMS_PATH = /var/www/xpml/httpdocs.
PLAYSMS_LIB = /var/lib/playsms
PLAYSMS_BIN = /usr/local/bin
PLAYSMS_LOG = /var/log/playsms
PLAYSMSD_CONF = /etc/playsmsd.conf
installer worked ok. Composer installed and updated correctly and playsmsd is running.I have doubled checked it.
When i try to login, i see the login screen but when I enter admin:admin nothing happens. The page stays there on log in screen and doesn’t let me logged in. Even if I click on forgot password, the url is changed to “index.php?app=main&inc=core_auth&route=forgot” but i keep seeing the login screen
I have checked the logs and found only this
of course i made sure that i am not blocked by firewall, etc.
I guess it might be a permission issue, but I am not sure which permissions I should change. I have follwoed the installation script and haven’t changed any other permission by hand.
/var/www/xpml/httpdocs - www-data:www-data - 755 (and recursively all folders under httpdocs are 755)
the logs are not helping me much, i have installed and re-installed 4 times and I am always stuck at this point.
I haven’t found a solution. I have installed and reinstalled playsms almost 7 times and used almost all versions.
The reason this happened to me is because i have updated(apt-get update) my ubuntu and something messed up most probably with permissions. And I am not talking about playsms permissions. Something, somewhere else… You need to debug to find out exactly why.
Last hope was to restore an older backup of the whole server (not playsms).
Fortunately, this worked out and then i was able to install version 1.1 with no problems.
