In the error log I can see this: Use of undefined constant is_admin - assumed 'is_admin' in /path_to_file.

I bet you have something like: $GLOBALS[is_admin] You need quotes around that, or else (as you've seen) php thinks it's a constant: $GLOBALS['is_admin'] A really quick and dodgy fix would be to turn error reporting down - but you should fix it properly.

That fixed the error. Thank you very much! I am still not able to log in. I am sure this is not the issue of me entering wrong login/password. This is the code in the program that uses authorization: if ( eregi('/admin/',$REQUEST_URI) || eregi('/workers/',$REQUEST_URI) ) {

    session_register("id_worker");
    session_register("is_admin");

    if(!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER) || !$id_worker=getWorkerID($PHP_AUTH_USER, $PHP_AUTH_PW))
    {
        Header( "WWW-authenticate: basic realm='Workers of SGM only'");
        Header( "HTTP/1.0  401  Unauthorized");
        echo  "You  must  enter  a  valid  login  ID  and password  to  access  this system\n";
        exit;
    }

}

You'll need to change: $PHP_AUTH_USER to $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and $PHP_AUTH_PW to $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] The former variables are ok before 4.2.0 (where register_globals was off by default I think) but now they have moved to the $_SERVER super-global.
