login.php?note=expired

[allybee]

Hello after successful install when I point browser to http://localhost:8083/testlink I got address changed to http://localhost:8083/testlink/login.php?note=expired and only thing I can see is "Ok" in the page source.

Installed on Windows IIS 6 with PHP 5.2.3. IIS account has write permissions to sessions folder (actually everyone too to be sure) and it still doesn't work. No error message just creepy "Ok". What "Ok"?!
pointing to login.php doesn't work too.
What seems to be wrong?

Help me out guys, as I'm struggling with it for two days already.

Thanks

hi, i met the same problem with you. Go to your test link folder, right click the folder, select property, and then select "security" tab, you'll see a "internet guest account", give this account the full control permission, click ok.
Go to test link login page, you will see what you want. Hope can help you!!!

Actually I gave up. Installed this on Apache and it started properly in about 20 minutes of work. IIS is just a crap for PHP and that's it. Thanks for the reply anyway...

Running with Apache.. I have testlink on a Vista machine, and can't seem to get rid of the expired notice. Can't login as any user, including a newly created one. I requested a new password, and that didn't work either.
I can't find a session table to clear, and no session file to clear.
I tried the security permission change with no good result.
Any answer otu there or do I have to find another test case manager. I spent 2 hours putting data in last week!.

I was facing this same problem and I've found a way to resolve it:

Open file php.ini from your PHP installation folder (C:\PHP in my case), search for session.save_path and check if this path exists.
I checked that the Php\session in the user temp folder didn't exist, so just create it, give write permissions on PHP folder to user IUSR_[MACHINE_NAME], restart IIS, clear browser cache and cookies and try again.
I'm using PHP 5.2.1, because I had MS-SQL connections problems in 5.2.5.
The weird point is this wasn't affecting my Mantis installation that works on the same server...

I hope this can help...
