I was able to successfully get phpGedView setup (using mysql version), imported a basic Gencom file and can perform online edits to it.
When trying to use gdbi-5-pgv.jar to connect to phpGedView (v 2.61.1) I'm not able to connect. I've verified that the user account exists and has edit rights.
I use a subdomain rather then a phpgedview directory.
When I put in the connect info:
"http://family.mydomain.com/gdbi.php"
userid
password
gencom file name (noticed that the import doesn't give it a .ged extension and only gives apache rw permissions)
I get can see the following error in the terminal view:
GI error action=connect: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Any thoughts / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
-Ron
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
For the rest of you who may come across this problem. This is a bug in PhpGedView using forced authentication. If you set your gedcom to require authentication before someone can view your site, the GDBI client is incorrectly forwarded to the login page.
This can be fixed by using an updated session.php page available from the latest beta release or by contacting me.

Problem solved. Updated the sessions.php file with help from Daniel @ GDBI.
