Deployment problem
Hi All
I recently finished a txp site for a client, and moved it over to their hosting provider.
The site works fine, but I can’t seem to login to the txp interface.
I’ve looked in the txp_users table and the admin user and password appear to be there.
What have I missed?
Thanks in advance

Re: Deployment problem
What are the mysql-versions at the diffferent servers? If you moved from mysql4.1 or newer to mysql4.0 or older, your problem will be due to the changed password() function in mysql. (Going from older to newer works with Txp, but from newer to older is not possible).

Re: Deployment problem
That would seem to be the problem, thanks.
Any idea how I could work around this?
I suppose I could do a clean install of txp, add my users, copy the the txp_users table, reinstall the client’s site and insert the values.
Hmmm

Re: Deployment problem
I think the easiest would be to reset the passwords via phpmyadmin.
Other than that you should make sure, that development and production machines use the same software. You may also get charset problems… (Which can be diagnosed in high-level diagnostics: xx tables: OK is fine, xx Tables: .... is latin1/urf8,... means potential trouble. There’s a more detailed explanation in the Textbook Manual at “Unicode Support”.)

Re: Deployment problem
My problem is that some clients insist on providing their own hosting environment, over which I have no control.
In future, I guess I should stipulate that MySQL 4.1 or higher is required.
Thanks for your help!
