Anyone know any possible fix for me? When I click the "Submit" button it redirects me to a blank page saying the address for the voting page. Am I suppose to change something some wheres in WAMP?

I would use XAMP but I have no idea how to use it....

excuse me! when someone else tries to access the cms, it says "Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server."

do you know what this is?

Hey, you have a great cms! I love how you can input html to create your own pages. I wanted to point out that in the download.php located in the pages folder, that the maplestory setup file and client file use the same "$".
<a href="'.$gms.'">
change the bottom (second) one in the file into
<a href="'.$client.'">

Most parts of the website works but when i try to login or register. It doesn't exactly redirect to the page. It says "the Page cannot be displayed" and the URL stays the same. Though it only works for one computer in my house. I'm using mozilla and i've tried clearing cache and browing history and cookies but there is no success. I'm pretty sure the config file is correct as well.

does anyone know what the problem is?

Out of all the flaws on AltairCMS that i've been fixing. I recommend you fix the "GET" variable issue.

Because if the "GET" info is not a number then do a check and make it do something else. for example if the "Get" variable is not a number or is INVALID make it by default equal 1. (doing this will fix the problem)

Here is an example. replace your link for your AltairCMS page with this.


Code:
http://(YOUR WEBSITE FOR ALTAIR CMS HERE)/?page=index&id=<script>alert('hacked by namek303')</script>


this security flaw will allow a user to actually make a cookie stealer. and all he needs to do is make a admin visit a page with the cookie stealer hidden on it. and boom he has the admin's cookies. and he replaces the Admin cookies with his and now hes a admin on the site. lots of damage that can be done for people that really customized it.

the damage that he can do includes, making a notice or announcement that causes harm. (embedding the cookie grabber in an announcement, testing for sql injection using the announcement, making a redirect to another site from announcement, defacing the site from announcement, making comments from announcements that are inappropriate to name a few options)

I really like this CMS and been working alot with it. Let me know how that works out or if u cant figure out how to fix it for you. (by fixing this you eliminate the biggest security flaw on the site)

Yep. Epic fail. Even after you follow the instructions it tries to take you to install.php, and since you renamed it it just returns a 404 message.

Edit:
I named it install.lock, but it kept the PHP extension. Might want to clarify that you need to make sure to remove the extension.

It must be a lock extension. If it is a php extension, then delete it > Open notepad> leave it blank > File>Save As > name ="install.lock" > File type: all files. put it into your install folder and you're done. I noticed his thing as vista and windows 7 won't change the extension for you when you edit it.

Go to accounts table in SQL, find the desired account u want and set the admin column to 1. Then login at the control panel and you'll be redirected into the admin page.
