I downloaded and setup OpenEMR ver 2.9.0 on computer  MAC OS X ver.10.4.11
I started using OpenEMR and got a message:
Notice: Undefined variable: ignoreAuth in /Library/WebServer/Documents/openemr290/interface/globals.php on line 239
I added statement:
$ignoreAuth=1;
After this I got login screen and after entering Username and password I got the page with frames and many notes like these:
Notice: Undefined index: authUser in /Library/WebServer/Documents/openemr290/library/acl.inc on line 81
Notice: Undefined index: userauthorized in /Library/WebServer/Documents/openemr290/library/acl.inc on line 94
…
and others notices and wornings in frames.
What is wrong?

Have you looked over my old tutorial on OS X?

I’d guess there’s a library dependency missing or something along those lines.

Thanks, Frederick for your reply.
I have read your tutorial. I’m using MySQL ver.5 (I assume that actual OpenEMR 2.9.0 works fine with this version?). FreeB included in the 2.9.0 OpenEMR. I installed permissions 777 for the library. But what really happens in my case - missing of indexes, such as $_SESSION [‘authUser’] in the $_SESSION array, it is empty. I.e. after entering Username and passvord they are not POSTING further. In short, I still do not understand what was happening.
