Hey everyone,
Let me say this although I am a Netwrok Admin, I am not as experienced as some of you so I will need some help here. I am getting the following error after successfully using the setup.asp to intialize the tables.
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required: 'Session'
/WZR/forum/config.asp, line 41 
I am using Windows 2003 Server with IIS6, I have gone to the Website properties as well as the Page properties to turn on Sessions no go it's not their or not very well visable. I have also created a virtual directory also to no avail. Where do I go from here. If any of you are in the united states I have unlimited long distance I would be happy to call you if you e-mail me your phone number to: tazdevil59@houston.rr.com
Thanks for the help in advance

I don't know Windows 2003, but in previous versions of IIS, Sessions are enabled in the application configuration dialog, that you can open from the Home tab, in IIS manager. Sessions are enabled in the App Options tab of the dialog.
Surely IIS 6 must have something similar. |

No, ruirib, I didn't have to enable it so, I am assuming it was enabled before. And I am still getting the same problem so i am assuming it may have to do with permissions ofr something not sure what to look for from here.
Thanks,

It's weird indeed. I'm assuming that has something to do with the new IIS, AFAIK to have sessions in your server all that was needed with previous versions was having sessions enabled the way I described.
Maybe someone more experienced with IIS 6 can help. |

Now I can login to the forums as admin from http://localhost/forum <- and it works and everything but when I login using IP address it allows me to login and says "Login Successful" but it goes right back to login page, what causes this and how do I fix it?
Thanks,

| it's most likely due to the Forum URL you've entered in the Admin Options > Main Forum Configuration. The cookie is now written to http://localhost/forum/ so when you go there using, for example http://127.0.0.1/forum/ the cookie won't be valid. Make sure all users use the same URL and then set the Forum URL to that URL. |
