Hi guys first post here.
We have just uploaded and set up an elgg system on my server.We had a test sytem running on a mate PC which we used to mess about with.That seemed fine.
But now we have uploaded to the web and gone live i am having an admin issue.Elgg seems to be working fine apart from if i try to post on another users message board it lets me post but always comes up with the message (user X posted )Where userX is the person whose profile i am viewing instead of me.Yet on our test server this worked fine.Is there an option i need to turn on or off.I have tried disabling the message board function and then switching it back on.But this makes no differance.
Also even though i am the admin of the site should i have the option to edit the others users personal details if i just go to there page.Or is this the same issue i ma having with the message board widget?
TIA guys

You must log in to post replies.Is your production server running PHP as a CGI process?
I don't know as i will have to ask my web techie guy.Will it make a differnace
Its running FastCGI
and apparently it can't be changed.
There have been occasional reports of this type of problem with the messageboard when using PHP as a CGI process. It is not consistent (this site runs PHP as a FastCGI process).
There was a way that people figured out to get it to work, but I don't remember the details. I know it is documented on this site in at least two places. You might try doing Google searches for CGI messageboard and site:community.elgg.org
Yes thanks mate.
We (well my techie guy) has sorted it using one of the links we found.
