Can't login to the site
By slowsoulz
For whatever reason, I am unable to login to the site whether as the admin or as a test user. When I put in the user name and password, I get this error message:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.freakybehavior.com.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
Is this a database issue?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You must log in to post replies.Turn off HTTPS login - see the Elgg wiki if you need help on that.
I can't even login to the admin panel. Can it be done from the database?
The browser window says this "https://www.freakybehavior.com/action/login."
I had an SSL certificate on the site and disabled it. That's when the problems occurred!
Hello,
Did you tryed to upload a phpinfo.php file and load it? (this would be something like https://www.freakybehavior.com/phpinfo.php with a <?php echo phpinfo();?> on it)
Regards.
Gushbellino,
Thanks for the reply. Here's what's happening. When anyone tries to login, it resolves to:
https://www.freakybehavior.com/action/login
I got rid of the SSL Certificate and that's when the problem started. I can't get to the admin section of the site to check anything.
The https://www.freakybehavior.com/phpinfo.php didn't work. When I took the "https" off and put "http" the PHP version info came up. I didn't see anything "out of place."
Any additional help would be greatly appreciated!!
You probably still have https somewhere, either in the config file or database.
EDIT: It'd be in the database.
EDIT 2: Check table elgg_sites_entity
Jessica,
It was the "elgg_config" file in the database. I edited it and took the "s" off of the "http_login", saved it, and everything is back to normal.
I also got some help here too!
Thank you so much for the help!
