Cant access admin after upgrading to V2.3.4

[psychopath]

After upgrading to oScommerce V2.3.4 I can not login to the adminsection.

It says something about the redirecting?

I have empty Sessions and action_recorder in the database but I still have the same problem.

I get the login prompt and enter the right user and password but after that I get the redirecting error.

 

Any suggestions?

What exactly does it say? What is happening?

Do you have SSL enabled on the catalog side? If yes, be sure to configure the new admin configuration parameters properly:

Nothing happends, the adminsection is not loading.

I suggest admin update after log off to prevent login loops.

I suggest admin update after log off to prevent login loops.

How do you mean?

I have already updated all the adminfiles.

[tgely]

You can turn off every loops with switch off which is the whimsy of loops. The best way to go back one step and start again the uprgrade on the admin site.

The most of loops start when admin logged in and click some link to follow the work, but session expired and must be login again but login fails..

If you used htaccess layer you have to wait for htaccess session expired or

It is possible to clear the authentication session with htpasswd, however it only works on Firefox.

Redirect the logout session to http://somelonghash@.../catalog/admin/ will reset/invalidate the basic authenticated session in Firefox. It may do in other browsers too however I have only tested Firefox and Internet Explorer.

The best practice though is a separate set of credentials for each security layer.

Pronlems solved, thanks for all suggestions.

I just did a new/clean install of 2.3.4. Everything installed just fine. However, when I try to access /admin, I get the following error:

 

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/onlinedi/public_html/admin/index.php on line 13

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys, I've had the same issue as the first poster. I've tracked the problem down to application_top.php which is in the admin/includes directory.

 

This section

// set php_self in the local scope

  $req = parse_url($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME']);

  $PHP_SELF = substr($req['path'], ($request_type == 'SSL') ? strlen(DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN) : strlen(DIR_WS_ADMIN));

 

Is what is causing my redirect loops. I changed just this part back to the original 

// set php_self in the local scope

    $PHP_SELF = (((strlen(ini_get('cgi.fix_pathinfo')) > 0) && ((bool)ini_get('cgi.fix_pathinfo') == false)) || !isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME'])) ? basename($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']) : basename($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_NAME']);

 

And the redirect loop goes away and I can once again log in. I've added the new configuration settings around HTTPS although I suspect is one of those variables that I don't have set right that is causing the issue. I've given up for the night and will try again later. 

Any ideas in the meantime would be appreciated.

You can try this

  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.berkeleyme.com');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'http://www.berkeleyme.com');
  define('ENABLE_SSL', false);

  define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

Hi All,

 

I've upgraded my 2.3.3.4 shop to 2.3.4. recently

I'm usiing Ajax product Atttribute Handler.

 

Since the update everything seems to work well. The only issue I have is that on the admin/catagories.php page where normally the ajax product attribute is loaded, now the admin/index.php page is loaded. Looks quite strang as the add product page (admin/categories.php) is displayed normal on the top and then is interrupted with the admin/index.php page before it contiues with it's normal contents.

I found out that if I disable the sessions/force cookies, then the prvious page is displayed correctly with the ajax product attribute handler.

 

I have tried to reverse the update, only if I complete reverse, so go back to 2.3.3.4, the issue vanish.

Can anyone suggest how to solve this session / cookies issue under 2.3.4?

 

Cheers

John.

PS. I also tried

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

 

without noticable difference.

Check your query I think I remember reading this type of display was caused by a missing/wrong query after the upgrade.

 

so pay specal attention to what is happening in admin/incudes/template-top.php there you will find the jquery calls

 

Ajax product Atttribute Handler  modifies admin/incudes/template-top.php a bit go over your work there again.

Joli

Hi Joli,

 

I've check check that too, bite cluesless now.

 

The handler is called in my template_top.php as:

 

<!-- AJAX Attribute Manager -->
<?php require_once( 'attributeManager/includes/attributeManagerHeader.inc.php' )?>
<!-- AJAX Attribute Manager end -->

 

and then loaded

 

<!-- AJAX Attribute Manager -->
<body onload="goOnLoad();">
<!-- AJAX Attribute Manager end -->

 

in fact i used the template_top.php from the last AJAX Attribute Manager update July 2014, made for OSC 2.3.4
