Have you messed with the cookie domain settings? Entering an incorrect value for cookie domain can cause things like this. If that is what the problem is, you could upload the tools.php file to your admincp so that you can reset it. You'll want to delete that file directly after though.

if it happens becoz of your mod

try disabling it from the config.php files

Open your /includes/config.php and add...
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Directly below...
<?php

and try to login to your admincp and try to disale the stuff which is not working for you

i had installed certain mods i thought u would be right but i did disable it from config.php file but still same problem i tried to log in it accepts everything but again shows log in window
i think i had changed user timecut option and i had put it to 60 sec is there any problem with this settings
please i am helpless:(

Well, If you mean that you changed your cookie timeout to 60 seconds, I'd definitely raise that. That would mean that your users would have to log in again every minute. I'm not sure if that would cause your problem or not. I'd think that you could at least get into your admincp long enough to change the timeout value to something higher. But, if this started happening right after you changed it, then it's likely what caused it.

I can't remember if the tools.php file gives you an option to run SQL queries, but if it does you could fix this via a query. Or, if your host provides something like phpmyadmin, you could do it via that too.

The SQL query should be something like this:

UPDATE `setting` SET `value` = '900' WHERE `varname` = 'cookietimeout' LIMIT 1 ;


Be careful though. You might want to open up a ticket with vBulletin and get their help directly. :D

Upload tools.php from the do_not_upload folder of your vbulletin zip file, place it in the admincp dir and the run tools.php from your browser, reset the cookie timeout, reset all domain settings as well as the cookie path.

That is a suphp issue, who owns the file, did you upload it to your acccount via ftp with your account username ovh?

The file isnt owned by root is it?

bro mine is dedicated one then tell me how can i solve it secondly i am going to change my server could you please tell me any good sever for forum and i want to run ma falshchat website aswell both together
very kind of you if you help me :?

[snakes1100]

If this is a dedicated server, then ssh in and check to see who owns the file tools.php is it owned by root or ovh? You can also just disable suphp if you want.

There should be no issue running any software on a dedicated server, if flashchat wont run, then whats the error?

i didnt understand did u say to me to go in shh and check the tools.php is owned by who? ovh or root
bro ovh is my server service provider company:(

[snakes1100]

According to your earlier post, ill quote you:

"UID of script "/home/ovh/www/install/tools.php" is smaller than min_uid"

/home/ovh, that is the user who should own what ever is in the later directories.

Im sorry, its not that simple to tell you how to disable suphp as i dont know anything about your server OS, is it linux, debian, bsd what, besides that, no telling how your server is setup, apache/php as dso or fastcgi etc.

[pujabrang]

its linux and apche/php
is there any other way around to enter in admin cp:(
anyways thanx man for your help

[snakes1100]

Sorry, as i said, i have no idea on how your server is setup, if you dont know linux and its command structure, im not going to be able to explain it here.

1. disable suphp
2. check ownership of the said file and make sure the ownership is right.
