Sign out problem

busterkat

When I click sign out I get this error:

"Not Found

The requested URL /home/xxxx/public_html/vf/people.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

the url is http://www.xxxx.com/home/yyyyy/public_html/vf/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow&FormPostBackKey=241a62f69a42fe348a9e007514a830e4

I guess it should be http://www.xxxxx.com/vf/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow&FormPostBackKey=241a62f69a42fe348a9e007514a830e4

Any ideas?

perhaps url_rewrite will help ..?

check /themes/{YOUR_CURRENT_THEME}/menu.php. Looke for something like: if ($this->Context->Session->UserID > 0) { echo str_replace('//1', $this->Context->Session->User->Name, $this->Context->GetDefinition('SignedInAsX')) . ' (<a href="' . FormatStringForDisplay(AppendUrlParameters( $this->Context->Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'], 'FormPostBackKey=' . $this->Context->Session->GetCsrfValidationKey() )) . '">'.$this->Context->GetDefinition('SignOut').'</a>)'; } else { echo $this->Context->GetDefinition('NotSignedIn') . ' (<a href="' . FormatStringForDisplay(AppendUrlParameters( $this->Context->Configuration['SIGNIN_URL'], 'ReturnUrl='. urlencode(GetRequestUri(0)))) . '">'.$this->Context->GetDefinition('SignIn').'</a>)'; }

Copy and paste what you've got.

I have a simlar type of issue. When I sign out it goes back to the sign in page. How do I make vanilla go back to my web home page ? By the way I am a complete novice so I will appreciate any help

Dinoboff

which theme are you using?

Tom Vellacott

I guess I am using the default theme as I have not changed any settings regarding themes.

What is the value of $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] in conf/settings.php?

Dinoboff

$Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] seems to be a relative to the page by default. It should be relative to domain; add to conf/settings.php:
$Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] = '/vf/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow' ;

Checked conf/settings.php and $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] does not appear in it ? Can we just add it and what should it be ?

Dinoboff

For a forum at http://example.com/forum/,
it should be $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] = '/forum/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow' ; or $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] = 'http://example.com/forum/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow' ;

For a forum at http://example.com/,
it should be $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] = '/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow' ; or $Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL'] = 'http://example.com/people.php?PostBackAction=SignOutNow' ;

I tried adding the "$Configuration['SIGNOUT_URL']" as above but when a user signs out it goes back to the message where you may sign in again to the forum. WhaI want it to do is to go to a web page on my site and display that and not go back to the forum sign in. Is this posible and how could it be done?
