Login script (probably a simple error)

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

dbConfig.php
Code: <?
// Replace the variable values below
// with your specific database information.
$host = "localhost";
$user = "username";
$pass = "password";
$db = "annarbo1_Archives";

// This part sets up the connection to the
// database (so you don't need to reopen the connection
// again on the same page).
$ms = mysql_pconnect($host, $user, $pass);
if ( !$ms )
{
echo "Error connecting to database.n";
}

// Then you need to make sure the database you want
// is selected.
mysql_select_db($db);
?>
login.php
Code: <?php
// dBase file
include "dbConfig.php";
session_start();

if ($_GET["op"] == "login")
{
if (!$_POST["username"] || !$_POST["password"])
{
die("You need to provide a username and password.");
}

// Create query
$q = "SELECT * FROM `people` "
."WHERE `username`='".$_POST["username"]."' "
."AND `password`=PASSWORD('".$_POST["password"]."') "
."LIMIT 1";
// Run query
$r = mysql_query($q);

if ( $obj = @mysql_fetch_object($r) )
{
// Login good, create session variables
$_SESSION["valid_user"] = $_POST["username"];
// Redirect to member page
Header("Location: index.php");
}
else
{
// Login not successful
die("Sorry, could not log you in. Wrong login information.");
}
}

?>
when I run this online i get this error:


"Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home4/annarbo1/public_html/login.php:2) in /home4/annarbo1/public_html/login.php on line 4"

I have yet to figure out what's wrong
