Look for this setting in default.cfg

Code:
# Display Debugging Information (1 = Yes, 0 = No).
$db_debug = 1;

Set this to 0 and your system information will no longer print at the bottom of your pages. If you had an error you wouldn't get a log in screen at all.

Hi.

Thankyou for your response. I have now turned off the debug information but now I just get a page cannot be displayed error when I try to log in. I dont know if this is because I am using an ISP's windows server. I have uploaded the default.cfg file to the following address : http://www.textileinst.com/default.cfg.txt

I would be grateful if anyone could give me help on this.

Here's the problem:

<form action="e:/web/textileinst/htdocs/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi" method="post" name="form1">

This path won't work unless you are actually sitting at the web server itself.

It needs to be something like http://www.textileinst.com -- etc. if you are trying to access it from the web.

Change this line in default.cfg

Code:
# URL of the directory dbman resides in. No Trailing Slash Please.
$db_dir_url = "e:/web/textileinst/htdocs/cgi-bin/dbman";

to

Code:
# URL of the directory dbman resides in. No Trailing Slash Please.
$db_dir_url = "http://www.textileinst.com/cgi-bin/dbman";

And the script will work... just tested it and was able to log in.

Good Luck!

Wow. Your an absolute star! Thankyou so much.



Do I need to do the same with db.cgi or shall I leave as that is using the following line:

$db_script_path = "e:/web/textileinst/htdocs/cgi-bin/dbman";

Once again - thanks, i feel like im making progress!
