Geeklog Forums

I tried to configure geeklog to be hosted in a port based virtualhost (eg. www.blah.com:4242). The problem I ran into is that cookies never get sent, so I could not log in (though the credentials I supply are correct, and the user shows up in \'who\'s online\'). In order to use a port based virtual host, one would need to set something like: $_CONF[\'site_url\'] = \'http://blah.com:4242\'; This repeatably results in inability to log in for me, even if the vhost is set up properly (as evidenced by the fact that I can access the site at that url). When I change that value such that it does not use the port based vhost, I can log in normally. I spent an hour troubleshooting this, so hopefully you won\'t have to -andre

So is there any fix for this?

That would be a question for the developers. In my case, I work around it by not using a port based vhost

Drats. I know that with Postnuke you can do this...I\'m just wondering what could be the actual cause of this, and what would I have to do to fix this. I don\'t have a choice on my local pc, I have to use port based virtual host.

finally found the answer to this problem when searching the forums today with just the word \'port\'. Here\'s the post. Click Me As the above post says: Change the cookiedomain to your domain, for dyndns.org users... yoursite.dyndns.org and change the site_url to reference the port you are running on: $_CONF[\'site_url\'] = \'http://yoursite.dyndns.org:81\'; Works for me
