Login-Loop

[rhawk1984]

index.php/login/admin/ loops back to index.php/login/admin/ and thus you can never login.

A failed login shows:

Error
Login error, please check your username and password.

A successfull login redirects you to

index.php/login/admin/

Using github version downloaded earlier today.

Hi,

I have only been able to reproduce this behavior by disabling cookies. Admin authorization is stored in the session, if your browser doesn't accept the session cookie login is not possible.
Can you confirm this is not the issue and that you DO have a session cookie starting with "EDK_" and belonging to this EDK installation?

Regards,
Salvoxia

So here is what i tried loged via ssh (putty) and ran rm * -rf (delete all files recursive) on my web folder then logged into php admin and cleared the database out.

Fresh install git cloned the current files into the folder opened the site hit site.com/install and got step 8/8 lock file has been generated ...

Puzzled at why i was being sent to step 8/8 i tried the above again deleted all files in web folder checked database (still empty)

Logged into admin pannel to check php version remembered getting a mail about an upgrade a few days before php version was 5.4.x changed it to 5.3.x and ran the install again now working with no issues at all!

This Killboard is Version 4.2.1.0

So tried moving php to version 5.4.x again and same issue cant login stuck in login loop no cookie made.

Changed php version to 5.3.x and its letting me back in.

Verdict is that 5.4.x has some strange caching/server side issues going on so im going to stay away from it hope this helps in some way.

Oph.
