Bad Request 400

when trying to install a extension in joomla you get a Bas Request 400 error. Try the following:

  1. delete all cookies and restart browser,
  2. Use a different browser
  3. possibly empty cache

These version of windows and above are capable of doing an offiline SFC scan via the command line and is very useful if you cannot boot windows.

The following code is what you would use:

  • sfc /offwindir= C:\windows /offbootdir= c:\ /scannow
Published in Windows Vista

These cheap CCTV systems will only work on internet explorer, in compatability mode, an utilise activeX technology so can be problematic to get working.


Solution 1

add website/IP to trusted sites in internet explorer

eg: make sure the ip of the local device 192.168.2.234 is added in to the 'Local intranet' zone as a safe site.


Solution 2

This is more indepth just incase solution 1 does not work. In security section make sure all prompts are set properely and this should allow activeX to run normally.

  • use internet explorer
  • goto to internet options/Security Settings
  • select he appropriate zone ie  Internet/Local intranet Zone
  • set the following in the
  • click on custom level
  • goto the 'ActiveX controls and plug-ins' section
  • set the following

allow activex filtering enabled ?
allow previous unused activex controls without prompt ?
automatic prompting for activex controls - enabled
download signed activex controls ? - prompt
download unsigned activex controls - prompt
intitialize and script activexcontrols not marked as safe for scripting - prompt
run activex controls and plug-ins - enabled ?

 

if any issues reuce all security, try and load, tehn reset all ie settings to default

Not sure exactly what this fix is for.

{code class="brush: css"}.article-content (line 310) { overflow-x: visible; overflow-y: visible; } .fp-article-content (line 312) { padding-left: 145px; } {/code}

possibly replace with 10px

I recently installed Joomla, and everything went smoothly, I had it running for a few days, then suddenly I could not login to Admin, I just get caught in a continuous loop, I do not get any error messages (except when I purposely type wrong password)


forcing https for admin seems to create admin loop (this works for me)

Go into your site either through your web hosting control panel or FTP access, find your configuration.php file which should be found the main root of the site. Edit the file, you should find; "var $force_ssl = '1';" switch this to 0 to disable it. Upload the file back to the site and check the administration page if it logs through http://

or

My Joomla 1.5 install was working great until I turned on SSL. After that I got the admin login loop. I fixed that by changing the $live_site variable as mentioned above. So, this may not be a solution to all of you who are having problem with this issue.

or

use htaccess to force https

- set session.use_cookies = 1 in php.ini did not work


Possibly permmisions or password

  • make sure joomla user plugin is published (jos_plugins)
  • the User Joomla! was 0 0 1 0 0 , I changed it to 0 1 1 0 0 (meaning I changed "published" from 0 to 1)
  • `jos_plugins` SET published='1' WHERE name='User - Joomla!'
  • Joomla login component permmsions (jos_plugins)
  • the User Joomla! was 1 1 1 0 0 , I changed it to 0 1 1 0 0 (meaning I changed "access" from 1 to 0)
  • try changing the administrator password
  • update tkjx45_users set password=MD5('MyPassword') where usertype = "Super Administrator"
