It's true, admin has to log in at least once to get BotTracker fully installed... </p> http://wpforum.designpraxis.at/topic/bot-tracker-230-restricted-access-please-login#post-413 Fri, 18 Jan 2008 16:03:16 +0000 ShackDougall 413@http://wpforum.designpraxis.at/ <p>I think I saw where someone else had a problem like this, so I thought I'd post about it. </p> <p>When I first went to the Bot Tracker dashboard, it gave me a Restricted Access notice and asked me to login (userid, password). I tried a couple of times and it kept giving me this.</p> <p>I typically do not use the "admin" account to login to Wordpress. I've created a personal admin account for that purpose called "Shack Dougall". But in the past, I have seen a couple of times where "Shack Dougall" didn't work for things, even though it is an administrator account with all roles and capabilities.</p> <p>So, on a hunch, I logged out and re-logged with "admin", and it worked! It asked me to change the permissions on the crawltrack directory to 777 and then I was in. (I had already changed the permissions on the cache dir to 777).</p> <p>Interestingly, once it was fully installed, I was able to re-log as Shack Dougall and now it seems to be happy.</p> <p>Just thought I'd pass that along in case it might be helpful for someone else.</p> <p>--Shack </p>
