Ah, I see it it now. Yes, they seem to be trapping and checking calls to header() that contain "location" lines, perhaps to stop people doing funny things with redirects on their service.

Yuk. Unfortunately I use these sorts of redirects all over the place in Moodle (eg after editing modules, making posts, etc) to save having "continue" buttons all the time.

It would be a hack, but one thing you could do is to look through the code for lines like:

  header("Location: $CFG->wwwroot");

and replace them with lines like:

  print_continue("$CFG->wwwroot");

which will print a "continue" button.

Hmmm ... the only reason I can think of is that the double slash is in the $CFG->wwwroot definition within config.php. Have you checked for this? It should be:

$CFG->wwwroot = "http://members.lycos.co.uk/username/moodle";

If not this, then email me the URL: I'd like to see what's happening here.

Hi, Jacob.

I'm pretty sure the problem is actually pretty minor (it's probably trying to access a field called "user" when they are now called "userid"). There's no need to delete the database, I'm just suggesting you get a fresh copy of the Moodle files. You shouldn't have to lose anything.

Also, it's possible to visit /admin even when not logged in - it should always fix things up if all the files are present and up-to-date.

Please email me some access if you still have trouble so I can take a look.

Also, it just occurred to me: did you visit the admin page after the CVS update to let it complete the installation?

This may happen if you updated only part of the installation. Also I've noticed some CVS weirdness recently (not sure what it is).

It may help to delete it all and retrieve a whole fresh new copy from CVS.
