Can you login yourself with the username and password that you've entered into goforum.cgi?

You can try turning on debug (set it to one) and it will show the output your forum is returning (sometimes several pages at a time). Does that offer any clues?

Yes. The username and password are "good".

If I turn debug "on", I get a text dump and Ikonboard actually launches -- but does not login.
No clues from the debug text.

I tried another username and password.
I tried deleting the cookie.
Same issue.

Ideas?

If you can send me a link to goforum.cgi with the debug output on I can take a look and see if I can see anything. Just private message or email me with the URL.

Today is a holiday in Canada. It's our Thanksgiving day! I'll fix it up for you first thing tomorow.

In case anyone is confused, here's a little background on Canadian thanksgiving (from google):

The site that was used to make the script with used rrs as their iKonboard cookie.

To fix it you need to modify goforum.cgi and replace their cookie id with yours.

Search for the line: if ($cookie !~ /rrsiBSessionID=([^;]+)/is) { die("Unable to get session ID out of cookies!"); }

Replace the "rrs" with your cookie id, if you use the cookie id "my_site_iB" then it will look like this: if ($cookie !~ /my_site_iBiBSessionID=([^;]+)/is) { die("Unable to get session ID out of cookies!"); }

That is the only line you need to fix. This really needs to be a variable in the next release... iKonboard cookie id.

That did it. Thanks.
Actually, there are two lines that require modification: the one you mention and the next line beneath it.
