cannot login after first installation

gpapasergio · January 2018

I installed vanilla 2.3.1 for the first time, in a clean installation, but when I want to connect to the admin I get the message that I attached

Thanks in advance

I don’t understand what is the problem, the system account is not the admin account ... please read the documentation if any . System account is A bot you can programan to do tasks. It’s not a real user admin or otherwise . You give it roles.

yeah sorry i'm a newbie. I've read forums and docs and cannot figure it out how to get access to setup screen. I'll keep searching for it.

One more thing https://mydomain/dashboard/settings does not work.

Thanks

You need to get through the setup page first .

vrijvlinder · January 2018

The config.php is thedashboard.You can undo there whatever you did wrong and get in using the ui

What parameters should I change in config.php? I have already done the setup process and the forum is working and configured. I just can not log in as admin, nor can I register as a regular user.
Every time I try to do it, it shows me the message of the image that I attached.

Thanks

Can you use the stand alone sign in page at yoursite.com/entry/signin ?

gpapasergio · January 2018

No, when i try to use mysite.com/entry/signin i "always" come back to that screen

Can you copy the content of your htaccess file and paste the code here

Yes, of course and thanks again.

Sorry, the above post got caught in the Spam filter.

Ok you need to use a different htaccess file . Try to replace the contents of the entire file with this, and report back.
