Midgard Connection

1. Get hold of the midgard-reciever.php file - this is usually located in the phpmole source under the legacy directory (dont ask why it's there)

2. in (old admin, nadmin or asgard), create a new host - eg.
www.myadminserver.com/phpmole/ it should be under SG0 if you want to manage the whole server, or you can just add it as a host to another sitegroup The page and host should NOT be authenticated. - that is handled by the code.

3. make sure that the  style of the root page is the standard EMPTY one = eg. <(content)>

4.  paste the contents of the midgard-reciever.php into the page contents area.

5. visit the page www.myadminserver.com/phpmole/ - it should ask you for a password, if you press cancel you will see something like this (or AUTHENTICATION DENIED) - it should look very similar - displayed in a fixed font, and all the tags visable. - if you dont see this you may not be using the 'empty' style.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<data>

<sitegroup>
<id>0</id>
<__table__>sitegroup</__table__>
<name><![CDATA[System Admin]]></name>
<sitegroup>0</sitegroup>
<realm><![CDATA[System Admin]]></realm>
<sgguid>0</sgguid>
................
  
  
  
  
6/ now go to phpmole, and either right mouse click on the area under the Files Tab - you should get a popup menu, - select add bookmark ** this will be changed in 1.3 to "Add Project", and is also available from the File menu.

7. in the dialog box
fill in the information as below - NOTE the / at the end of /phpmole/





host is the same as the example above  = eg. www.myadminserver.com
username could be just admin or myname+mysitegroup
path to xml interface relates to the bit after the url http://www.myadminserver.com/ XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
the port would be either 80, 8001 or 443 depending on how you set up the host.

8. press update and you should now have a project/bookmark in the tree on the left menu. - try expanding it. - it should prompt you for a password - fill in the account password.

9. you should now see a tree - either of sitegroups (for admin) or a list of different element types for non-sysadmin logins.
