Admin Section Freaking Out! Hello all, I have a relatively annoying problem with my PN site (0.7.2.6-1 Phoenix). There are scattered links within my Admin section which when clicked used to deliver deliver blank pages, but now I get authorization errors. I’m hoping you folks can give me some general guidelines for beginning to troubleshooting this problem. Examples of links which result in authorization error pages with the error message below: 3rd Pary Mods: /index.php?module=weather&type=admin Not authorised to access Weather module /index.php?module=PostWrap&type=admin Not authorized to modify settings! Core Mods: /index.php?module=Blocks&type=admin Not authorized to carry out operation on blocks /index.php?module=Censor&type=admin Not authorised to access the Censor Module /index.php?module=Modules&type=admin Not authorised to access Modules module Also, my Web_Links module now produces blank pages: http://wardamntailgate.com/modules.php?op=modload&name= Web_Links&file=index&req=visit&lid=10 (Note: I've left any authid codes off the example paths above) I first noticed this problem most recently when trying to regenerate my modules (Yikes!). What's odd is that only a handful of links to different functions in any given module deliver these authorization errors while they used to return blank (empty) html pages. While the site is perfectly usable from the end user’s perspective, I don't want this to get any worse from the Admin's perspective. I'm betting this is going to get worse before it gets better! I’ve searched and seen scattered mentions of this in different forum, but I’ve not seen any common threads to help me troubleshoot this. Oh, here’s some basic info on the site environment: CMS Version 0.7.2.6-1 Phoenix url http://www.wardamntailgate.com/ WebServer - Apache/1.3.28 (Unix) Operating system - Linux Kernel version - 2.4.26-grsecvx Apache version - 1.3.31 (Unix) PERL version - 5.8.1 PHP version 4.3.8 MySQL version - 4.0.20-standard cPanel Build - 9.4.1-RELEASE 64 Theme cPanel X - v2.3.0 Again, any insight into this would be greatly appreciated!   mazsalleh Senior Member Posts: 149 Registered: 1/31/2004 Status: Offline   posted on 9/3/2004 at 06:10 PM I'm not a Guru, but I had a lot similar problems like you. The only conclusion I have that there must be a Problem with your Database connection. And the Permission settings there. The last time when I lost all my authorizations, I used the Swiss Army knife. It should reset things back the way they were. You can download it here: http://downloads.postnuke.com/pafiledb.php?action=category& amp;id=47
