This has to do with the Content Display Mod on the front page

www.funinbc.com


The display mod was from here
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=40300&SearchTerms=portal,mod




The Content Display mod brings info over from the forum to the front page.


The forum page is

http://www.funinbc.com/forum/default.asp


I made a change to the forum to only allow signed members to view the forum. Now when they go to the front page with Content Display mod it tries and redirects them to this:

http://www.funinbc.com/login.asp?target=index.asp which does not work


I have changed the site back to allow everyone to view the site but this is still happening.


If you go directly to the forum and sign in then the front page will work again. If you sign out, clear your cookies and try and go to the front page it will not work

HELP!!
What do I have to do to get the home page back up??

When you go to:
/index.asp

It redirects to:
/login.asp?target=index.asp

Which of course does not work.

Does this have something to do with index.asp, login.asp, or something completely different?

can anyone help??? I have an active site but now no one can see it.

does index.asp reside outside of the forum directory? If so, sounds like you might have 2 sets of Application variables and only 1 of them is updating.

I've never used the Content Display MOD, so I can't help you with that.

does the index.asp page use the inc_header.asp file from the forum? If so, try this:

find this section of code in the inc_header.asp file (around line #169 of an unmodified file)
if strRequireReg = "1" and strDBNTUserName = "" then
	if not Instr(strScriptName,"policy.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"register.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"password.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"faq.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"login.asp") > 0 then
modify it so it looks like this (basically just adding 1 line of code)
if strRequireReg = "1" and strDBNTUserName = "" then
	if not Instr(strScriptName,"policy.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"register.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"password.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"faq.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"index.asp") > 0 and _
	not Instr(strScriptName,"login.asp") > 0 then


I would go ahead and modify both the inc_header.asp file in the forum directory and the one outside the forum directory (if you are using 2 different files).

Your right I use inc_header.asp file on the front page outside the forum directory.



Thank you I have changed this to:

if strRequireReg = "1" and strDBNTUserName = "" then
if not Instr(strScriptName,"policy.asp") > 0 and _
not Instr(strScriptName,"register.asp") > 0 and _
not Instr(strScriptName,"password.asp") > 0 and _
not Instr(strScriptName,"faq.asp") > 0 and _
not Instr(strScriptName,"index.asp") > 0 and _
not Instr(strScriptName,"login.asp") > 0 then

but I still get the blank page

http://www.funinbc.com/login.asp?target=index.asp



Any other Idea's I can try?

you can try rebooting the server. Or just remove that entire if/then section from the inc_header.asp page that you are using outside the forum.
