I followed all the directions via the README file and for some werid reason, admin:monitor won't take. I visit my url and attempt to login and do not have success. All it seems to do is redirect back to the login screen with no errors or anything. When I run hiawatha -v this is my output. "Hiawatha v8.5, cache, chroot, IPv6, Monitor, reverse proxy, SSL, Tomahawk, URL toolkit, XSLT Copyright (C) by Hugo Leisink <hugo@leisink.net>"

Also, I have never ran into this issue before.


Hiawatha version: 8.5
Operating System: Debian 6

What's in the table 'user' in the database?

admin 08b5411f848a2581a41672a759c87380 NULL 2 Administrator

That's correct. The fact that you are redirected back to the login screen without any error is weird. What do the logfiles say. Does pressing the submit button give you a POST request in the access logfile?

I replaced my ip addres with 0.0.0.0. Here is the print out for *.log files

i@4:/hello/world/monitor/logfiles# cat access.log
0.0.0.0 - - [01/Oct/2012:02:12:54 -0700] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 1575 "https://monitor.projectphaze.us:80/" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0 Iceweasel/11.0"
i@4:/hello/world/monitor/logfiles# cat actions.log

i@4:/hello/world/monitor/logfiles# cat error.log
i@4:/hello/world/monitor/logfiles#

As you can see it does accept the login, but it forces logs out.

At first i was thinking that it could be an issue with permissions. So here is the list of permissions.

From your logfile: https://monitor.projectphaze.us:80/

HTTPS at port 80? Is that correct?

Yes that is correct. I use port 443 for a different service.

Could that be the reason as to why it force logs off and then does a redirect to the login page?

I don't think so. I tried visiting https://monitor.projectphaze.us:80/, but I don't see the Monitor website at that URL. Is that possible? I'd like to see for myself what goes wrong.

I renamed the url, that is my fault. Here is the address https://monitor.b0x4.net:80

I have the monitor in a jail. I did try to use FastCGI. But it had the same outcome.

Hi all,
I had a similar issue installing monitor website on an already running hiawatha server (8.4 --> 8.5beta --> 8.5).
Every time I had to login twice to enter and view a page, asked again for password at every next request.
Fortunatelly I have another hiawatha webserver with monitor running properly so I checked/compared everything, endind up installing
missing package php5-mcrypt and now it works like a charm. I'm running hiawatha 8.5 with php5-fpm.
Hope this helps somehow.
Kudos to Hugo for this great product!!!
Cheers,
Dario

I'm afraid I have no clue what goes wrong. Can you do some debugging in models/login.php? Try with some print statements to see what code is executed.

I will try that Hugo and get back to you.

Here is what I did so far. I installed Hiawatha monitor on my other server. URL https://monitor.projectphaze.us and the install went perfect. I would like to add that both servers are almost the same. Except for iptables! So I guess it's time do what Dario did and compare to see what my isolated issues is.

Okay so i figured out the issue. The Hiawatha Monitor does not accept authentication via port 80 over https. I am not sure as to why, would you have an idea Hugo? i guess my next step is to see if i can get it to accept authentication via https over port 80.
