Strange error found after installing OEMFR V 3.1.0
I tested both on Fedora 9 and Ubuntu 8.
The installation goes fine. During installation used other name for admin as  ‘otto’ .
I loged in fine. with ‘otto’ and password ‘pass’
I was able to see phpMadmin within EMR fine.
I changed the user ‘otto’  password to ‘secret’
This caused the phpMyadmin to stop working with err as below:

Not Found
The requested URL /login_screen.php was not found on this server.

Any ideas???

hey,

Tried above and couldn’t confirm bug on mandriva 2008 with firefox. Are you sure you didn’t modify globals.php at all; specifically this line:

session_name("OpenEMR");

If you modify this you need to make changes in config in phpmyadmin (see globals.php for further details)

If that’s not the case, does clearing the browser cookies help?

Yes I did at some point,  but after the failure I attempted several times to install it without changing the session variable.
In past versions changing this variable did not cause problems.
Why it did not work later when I did not change that variable ?

cleaning browser cookies and matching the sessions variable solved this issue.  My fault, I did not read the comments inside globals.php carefully enough.
Thanks
