Hi,

I just install OpenEMR 4.0, during installation all works fine, in step 5 I edit the PHP.ini according to instructions, all works fine, I can use login_frame.php, but in the next step accesing main_screen.php?auth=login&site=default, I just see the frames lines and inmediatly step back to login_frame.php

Please help

I’m not sure I follow u. but when I get a blank screen it means I edited a specific file with the wrong editor. It has to do with formating issue. ie: when the new file gets saved, one of the line gets cut off and part of it winds up in the next line. this disrupts the running of the program.

good luck

Dear Carzet:

Will you post your operating system type, version of web server (usually Apache), MySQL, and PHP?

What type of machine are you installing on a server you own or an on-line web hosting service?

I think that you mean that everything is going back to where you just see the login page?

TVM for answer,

I have windows XP, xampp 1.6.7 (apache 2.2.20, MySQL 5.5, PHP 5.2.6), the server is an intranet I have acces to the server, it run joomla 1.5 and moodle.
Now rewriting the problem: I login, it pass to next page begin, to loading, draw the frames and then back to login page.

From your description something is happening that causes your page to redirect back to the login page.  This suggests that your Apache Server does not have permission to access the page that is trying to load and then gets redirected. 

I have not tried the newer versions of XAMPP.  We have had problems before with the newer versions sometimes having bugs that cause problems.  The pre-packaged XAMPP packages with OpenEMR already installed are easier to use.  The most recent uses XAMPP-1.4.16 I believe.  Would you consider using one of the previous versions?  After installation of the XAMPP prior to installation of OpenEMR just delete the 3.2 directory, insert the openemr-4.0 directory, then proceed with the openemr installation.

Art is working a new Windows installer to be ready for the 4.1 release but this is not completed yet.
