Not a mysql problem. If it was, you wouldn't see anonymous user pages either.

Did you login with your Drupal admin username and password or not?

Can you access the site as the admin account?

If you can't log in as admin, you'll have to search the forums for how to reset the admin password.

If you CAN log in as admin, make sure you've defined an Administrator role and gone into User Permissions and set up permissions so that at least the admin user can see the content and content types.

It sounds like you're simply not getting logged in and that anonymous may not be set to view content, but I'm not sure if I'm understanding you correctly.

To get to a login page, the URL would look something like this:

http://www.mysitename.com/?q=user

Good luck.

I said i cannot see even the login page itself,
wen i just try to enter localhost\drupal6
i directs me to page saying access denied,
Thereś no login option found in the page.

Try to login as super admin If you have lost or forgotton your password open phpmyadmin there you can change password in user table
simply edit the row where uid is 1 and update the password in pass field there remember to change it in md5 format as drupal uses md5 format to encrypt password.

So your url is localhost then to see the login page, type the following in your browser:
http://localhost/drupal6/?q=user
or
http://localhost/drupal6/user

This will give you a login page.

What i guess is you created a page, set it to front page and forgot to publish it.

If you're now logged in but can't see the page, go to content management/content and set the filter so that it shows you pages with a status of "not published."

The one you created might be listed.

If you're logged in as admin, you should see it and be able to open it, edit it and set the "Publishing Options" to "published."

If the page isn't listed, then perhaps you didn't save it...? Admin user (user 1) should have permission to access it under all circumstances.

Have you defined an Administrator role, and if so have you then assigned your Admin/user 1 account to that role and set the permissions for it to allow everything? Not necessary, but helps when/if you start setting up access according to role.

I just moved all my site from server to local, i think all is right, except i can't load the login page! it always loads the main 'site offline' page, whether i use mysite/?q=user or mysite/user

Can't find any answer to this anywhere!

Your site may be off line.

I moved my working site from a internet server location to localhost using (Wampserver) to do some trouble shooting. Every page works great on Localhost. I can actually browse hundreds of pages . I just cannot get to the usual login screen at:
http://www.mysitename.com/?q=user
or
http://www.mysitename.com/user

The site is online

Firefox says
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.

Internet explorer says
Unable to connect

I know wampserver is working correctly or I wouldn't be able to browse any pages.
Rewrite_module is enabled in wampserver

Drupal 6.16

Any help on this would be great. Thanks in advance!!
