Can't login after registering on CentOS 5.7

[swimboy]

I had a demo version of FOP 2.26 running smoothly on my 32-bit CentOS 5.7 server and purchased a license. Once I installed the license and restarted the server, I get prompted for a username and password, but it never connects.

I saw someone suggesting that one of my button labels beyond the first 15 might have a non-ascii character in them, so I checked. All of my button labels are ascii only.

I ran fop2_server --test and it tells me that I have a valid license and that it connects to the manager OK. If I revoke the license and restart the server, everything works fine. Re-register, and the problem returns.

Any suggestions on how to get this working with the license in place?

First you must determine if you cannot connect or if the credentials are wrong.

Are you prompted for exten/pass again? or it times out 1,2,3,4 ?

To see a list of valid users you must inspect the output from

/usr/local/fop2/autoconfig-users-freepbx.sh

To see if you might have an invalid character run:

/usr/local/fop2/autoconfig-buttons-freepbx.sh >/tmp/buttons.cfg
file /tmp/buttons.cfg

It should say "ASCII text", if anything else, you do have a bad character somewhere, opening the /tmp/buttons.cfg with less will probably show it as a ? sign

There is another posibility of a bad character, and that is in the licensee name, that is hard to find/check , you will have to send me by email (NOT HERE!) your activation code so I can review it. Or you can try to catch me on the live help to chat.

I've confirmed that the user and password I'm trying to log in with are in the output from autoconfig-users-freepbx.sh. My session times out when I try to log in.

I've double-checked that the response from file /tmp/buttons.cfg returns ASCII text.

I suspected a bad character in the licensee name (I used an apostrophe), and tried to revoke the license, change the name and re-register, but perhaps I can't change the licensee name on my own after registering.

I will email you my registration code.

I am also experiencing this. Installed in demo mode, was able to login. Purchased a license, registered license, login screen is continuously trying to login. I did use an apostrophe in the name. I tried to revoke and reinstall the license, but I am not prompted to reenter the name. Any assistance would be appreciated.
