I need to create a enw php script amd do the following!

[Frank H. Shaw]

The following works fine and since it is a private forum going to it requres a password to get into it. The system ask the user for the private password and takes me to the correct fourm number 30 as it should.

$curdir = getcwd();
chdir('./forums');
require_once('./global.php');

// if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
// {
// print_no_permission();
// }

chdir($curdir);

switch ($_POST['blue_lodge'])
{
case "John T. Heard Lodge":
$vbulletin->url = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/forumdisplay.php?f=30';
eval(print_standard_redirect('redirecting to forum', false, true));
// echo "We have found it ";
break;

default:
echo "Invalid page";
break;

}

?>


But If I uncomment these lines

if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
print_no_permission();
}

The login screen comes up fine but if i use my vaild user name and password it does not take me to the forum but a get a 404 error page.

If I decide to click on the register link i have the same trouble 404 error page !

Please explain how to get around this problem.

THANKS

I think my problem has something to do with the fact that i am runnung IIS so i have come to the realization that the chdir('./forums'); will not work on the IIS server - Please explian to me what is the problem and how to get around it.

The problem here seems to be a result of the chdir working diffently on a IIS server which runs windows 2000 and not lynex - so i have made a new thread addrees this directly thanks !

if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
print_no_permission();
}

seem to have problems inside there source and might have to do with the fact that i am running on a non lynex server - which i am in fact running windows 2000 server from microsoft and running IIS - i have tested the chdir function it works diffentely on the IIS server - i have verifyed the fact by putting ecos in after using the function.
