I need help: Gimme your thoughts! What would you do?

[Trax]

Ok, here goes what is happening....
few months ago i wanted to try a new CMS on a new paysite of mine. i choose adultwebware because they seemed to have a perfect solution for me (concerning features and pricing). the owner - truenick - was really busy working but i finally got him to get the script full integrated into my design on dec 30th 2003.
so the job was done in the last second... i was angry at him for a long time because of numerous delays and everything but he finally got it online (i wanted to start sending traffic on the 1st).

now on the 31st the processor installed their script and new years morning, when i wanted to enter the admin, i get some stupid "login incorrect" or whatever error
so i msged him to fix the problem.

But this is where the real problem starts... up to now i have not heard back from him
he didnt reply to my email
he didnt reply to my ICQ msgs
and also my thread here on GFY stayed unanswered

i am not sure if this guy is alive.. where he is.. or what is going to happen...

all i know is that i am kinda like running out of time because i am paying for BW i dont use and have to let affiliates, who want to start sending traffic, wait because i cannot update the fucking members area.



now here goes the part where i need YOUR comment...
the only possibilities i see are:

a) waiting for him to come up again (who knows where he is or if he is still alive)

or

b) get a new cms installed asap



WHAT TO DO?

what would you do? i really need some input from you guys

You planned your big launch over a long holiday weekend? No wonder you can't get in touch with him, not everybody lives online 24/7. People do go on vacation.

Did you ever log in to the admin and set your username and password for the admin section? Is your AWW in a .htaccess protected members area?

[Rorschach]

I assume you have the source, so I'd pay someone else to fix it in the meantime... and devote a fair amount of time to tracking the other dude down and giving him a good sorting out.

1) its no program i release... its just a paysite that i can launch whenever i want since i am mainly the one promoting it...
i got decent sources of traffic and the 1st was the limit i set myself because of the server and stuff.... doesnt really matter when it happens as i just have to switch all the links which takes 2 min. (thank god for clever scripts)

2) i dont think he went on vacation because of this

i thought about it too and asked my host
mike from phatservers replyed:

Hi Trax, it's not an apache auth problem (.htaccess/.htpasswd) this is a built in one that they've got in the script. So somewhere they've got the passwords encrypted, possibily in a DB or elsewhere, I'm really not sure.
The .htaccess file in the directory is not there any more. If you were to put another page in that dir you'd see you can browse to it. I'm sorry I can't be of more help, I'm not too familiar with aww. :/



so i am not 100% sure if it is still possible what you say as i am no big programmer
if anyone with the right knowledge knows if it is still possible or would take a look at it to check if something can be done i would appreciate that
i would surely pay for it, too


thanks so far
please keep it coming

the processor protected the whole members.domain.com which includes the aww admin dir
i am sure it has something to do with that
but again: above is what my server admin replyed...

OK, your login has to be in the .htpasswd file where the AWW is located. I can help you (I think) with the login, but I don't know if I want to do it on a public board, as I would have to give you the exact file to look for. Email? ICQ?

get new cms installed, there was one addvertised on this board the other day that had member area software as well as cascading billing and affiliate software as well...

Your site kicks ass and will convert like no other site of your type and the member area is good as well, you need to get traffic to it asap.

Greetings, Trax,


well,

a) you could get what you were kindly waiting for - te see me online. Unfortunately I was offline due to my disconnectivity problems again. I have described it as detailed as I could find suitable to post these details here on GFY:
http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...hreadid=217558


a.1. I'm telling you again, if I'm not online - please contact [email protected] since I have hired some people to help in such cases. I have checked the [email protected] and found no any messages from you there.
a.2.Your issue is simple - as soon as your new billing has set up the .htaccess protection, AdultWebware bulletproof-admin protection was activated, since you was loggin in in the admin panel with wrong login/password (which was unknown for the Adult-Engine).
a.3.To find the way out of this maze you could look into the AW Online Help Center which is still based by the url I've sent to you from the beginning:
http://www.adultwebware.com/aw/___help_v35_work/eng/
a.4.If you do not have time looking through the huge manual to our huge software product, the path is simple --> Admin Panel (on the left) --> Admin-panel Security
or just this url: http://www.adultwebware.com/aw/___he...minsecure.html


i.e. just place the login and password via your online admin interface (admin panel --> main) or manually in your config.inc.php configuration file.


b) you are welcome to find any other Paysite Automation utility if you would like to. In that case I will refund you your $320 for Adult-Engine itself and for custom design integration which was made out of queue for you. Even if you would find a Paysite Automation system which is better than AdultWebware's one, I will send you a check on $100 to your mailing address (please specify one) or via PayPal. Even after that our doors will be still open for you.




I am always available for conversations of any kind here:

sorry dude
i just read your post and i assumed it was something easy to fix to get the software working....

as far as the software goes... i can only say it here in public again

AWW is the best CMS system i have seen out there... wrote that at the beginning of my first post too....
i can only recommend anyone to use it thats for sure...

what only worried me is that you disappeared which is explained now...
actually i sent 2 emails to you:

one to your nick-******(@)adultwebware.com on the 3rd of jan
the second as a fw to truenick (@) adultwebware.com with cc to support (@) adultwebware.com and the nick- one

because i know you are usually fast replying i was worried...

Greetings, NetRodent!

Never heard of you or ever was talking to you, but thanks for your neutrality!

I live almost 24/7 online unless my providers has connectivity problems (now I'm on the dial-up and missing my 2mbps line lol).

Let me give you a personal present from AdultWebware for your New Year, Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza, Government holiday, Atheist annoyance, or whatever you celebrate - a $115 discount for Single-Domain version or 10% for Multi-Domain version.

Just let me know your email and I will send you your personal payment link which you can use yourself or send it to your friends as a present or give to your partners or whatever - AdultWebware's products are the hard currency

And even more - It is payed back well by itself.
