Installation on server was created by tduffy
Hi
I have installed toolkits on our webserver but when I access the management console nothing displays when I click any of the buttons i.e site details, templates etc. I have obviously done something wrong in the setup but can't see what as the install confirmed as OK. I am able to log into the management console with the admin set that I created but then when I access the link from a desktop machine as a user it is always logged in as guest.

These are two seperate issues.
- Login to management.php should only work with the admin creadentials you provided. Don't know exactly why the page doesn't work. What browser are you using?

- During installation, for the normal xot login, guest login is the defauilt. You have to edit auth_config.php to modify the way users are authenticated. See Page 31 of the ToolkitsInstallationGuide

Thanks Tom. I have now in fact reinstalled and the management console to work. The next issue is I have created a LO, which looks as if it is using the normal flash engine. However, I want this to use HTML 5 so it can be used on other devices. The export was set as Javascript and not flash. The only way I seem to get the HTML 5 template applied is when I do a local install.

Does the LO preview use the Javascript engine?
What kind of export are you trying to do?

Sorry. When I said export what I actually meant was just viewing using the URL that is given. When I install toolkits locally it produces an LO with the HTML5 theme (the black one) but when I seem to install it on a webserver it comes out with the previous theme (the bluey one).

In properties, can you toggle between flash and javascript?

What server (what OS) are you using?

This should work on a server environment as well. Is this a fresh install or an update?
