The problem he was experiencing was with this:
The problem is here:
<cfif session.allowin neq "true">
<cfif CGI.SCRIPT_NAME EQ "login.cfm">
<cfabort>
<cfelseif CGI.SCRIPT_NAME EQ "login_process.cfm">
<cfelse>
<!--- this user is not logged in, alert user and redirect to the
login.cfm page --->
<script>
alert("You must login to access this area!");
self.location="login.cfm";
</script>
</cfif>
</cfif>
It must be changed to:
<cfif session.allowin neq "true">
<cfif CGI.SCRIPT_NAME EQ "/bluegrasspro/membersonly/login.cfm">
<cfabort>
<cfelseif CGI.SCRIPT_NAME EQ
"/bluegrasspro/membersonly/login_process.cfm">
<cfelse>
<!--- this user is not logged in, alert user and redirect to the
login.cfm page --->
<script>
alert("You must login to access this area!");
self.location="/bluegrasspro/membersonly/login.cfm";
</script>
</cfif>
</cfif>
This requires the web path to the login page as modified.
The issue has been resolved :)
