[Koha] Unable to login

[Doug Dearden]

Ajesh,

This looks like a DNS issue to me.  Can you ping mykoha.org?  If not then you probably don't have this name pointing to the IP address of the server.

However, I would encourage you to abandon the idea of using Koha 2.2.9 on Windows, and install the latest stable release on Linux (or wait a few days and install version 3.4 when it is released).  I don't believe the 2.2.x branch is being updated in any way.  To keep up with bug fixes and enhancements, you really want to be on the version the Koha community is contributing to.  If this is a test box you are setting up then you could download the latest stable release now - version 3.2.7 available at  http://download.koha-community.org/ , then update to the 3.4 release later after you are comfortable with Koha on Linux.

Best,

Doug

Subject: [Koha] Unable to login

Hi,

 I have installed Koha 2.2.9 on Windows XP.

 Now, I am trying to login to Koha as admin using the below link
   http://www.mykoha.org:8080
or
   http://www.mykoha.org:8080/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl

 But I am getting the below error message:
*************************************************************************
The connection has timed out

The server at www.mykoha.org is taking too long to respond.

  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.
*************************************************************************

 Firewall is not turned on and the computer's network connection is ok.

 However I see that I am able to login successfully as a user at
  http://localhost
or
  http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl

 Please let me know how to solve this issue.

OS: Windows XP
Mozilla
ActivePerl 5.8.9 Build 829
Apache 2.0.64
MySql Server 5.1

Thanks & Regards
Ajesh
