Tried to installed CPG at my localhost, but pump up this message after I filled out everything.

Any advises, please?

as you surely have read the manual, you have CHMODed the include folder to 755 or 777 (depending on your server). If you run Windows, you know of course that there is no CHMOD command for you, so you have edited the permission level on Windows Explorer accordingly.
This error comes as a complete surprise to me, since you have read the manual, did what it told you and you know how to run a server. :wink:

another great example of the term "threaddrift". Most likely this is cookie-related. Please search the board.

gaugau, you are right. it's always been the cookie problem.

What I did is to reset default cookie setting in my firewall, ZoneAlarm Pro 4, then I see admin mode afer I log in.

Acutally, the firewall prevented me to post messages in some BBS if I had it on. I guess it all caused by the cookie setting.

Any sectuiry issues regarding these cookie in CPG?

anway, thanks for help!  :)

afaik cookies never threaten your security (at least I haven't heard of a cookie exploit), only your privacy: your steps become more transparent to people who want to track your ways around the internet if you accept all kinds of third-party cookies (infamous adserve).

As a rule of thumb: nearly all pages that let you personalize a page (some sort of login) need to have cookies enabled.

This has happened quite often to me: personal firewall software often causes more trouble than it solves. You really have to know what you're doing if you use it. I mean there are great products, don't get me wrong, but it often gives people a false ilusion of safety if they run such a software. Real firewalls (for companies) are based on software/hardware on deidcated machines, and there's a reason why: it works.
