This is the first time i've used this script and although it installed quickly and easily (which I like) I cannot login as Administrator.  Per the instructions, I am using the username; Administrator and no password and I get a notice that says, "Your password must be changed by logging into the Calendar Administrator before you can login to the calendar display".  I'm not sure what it wants me to do.  I ran the debug script and it says everything is good.

I am running windows XP home, IE (latest ver)and I am running my own webserver (apache for win32) and yes, I have checked the docs.

I appreciate your help

** "Your password must be changed by logging into the Calendar Administrator before you can login to the calendar display". I'm not sure what it wants me to do.  **

There should be 2-text boxes presented. Enter the password you want to use, twice.

There are two boxes; username and password.  I tried your suggestion and entered the password twice and I got the reply, "Username not found in database: *********"

The very first time logging in to the administration section after running the setup you should only be presented with 2 text boxes, both for a password. I don't know how you're getting one asking for a username, sorry.

You are trying to log in to the administration script and not from the calendar screen??

when I run calendar.pl I get the calendar and at the lower left I see a login link.  After clicking that link I get a window asking for username and password.  What could I have done wrong?

You have to first access the script from the administration application (calendar_admin.pl) and go through the setup procedure not just login from the calendar display (calendar.pl).

From the documentation:  

quote:
Run the Admin application

At this point, the aplication should be ready to run. To start the setup process, load the calendar.pl file in your web browser. The URL to it might look something like this:

htp://ww.yourserver.com/cgi-bin/calendar.pl

If the calendar does not display correctly see the next section, "Troubleshooting Installation." If it does display correctly, next check to make sure the calendar_admin.pl application is working. Load it in your web browser. The URL might look something like;

htp://ww.yourserver.com/cgi-bin/calendar_admin.pl

If the 'Setup Wizard' screen loads successfully, you are all set!
