Foren / Cotonti / Support / 0.0.3 New Install Login Problem

I haven't tried a fresh 0.0.3 install yet myself.

Check the account make sure it is an admin, also when you login did you check "remember me"?

Well you have to refresh again after you login to see yourself online. Thats due to the way whoisonline works.

Oh I know, there can be a problem with cookies and domain. Set the cookie domain to, ".illusionsgaming.com" exactly like that (no quotes)

Ok Yea the problem is when you "Remember Me" It uses cookies, and it needs the domain set right.

Kilandor & Trustmaster,

Thank you both for your assistance.

Yes the site is on a remote server but I do have the main url set to the full domain with no trailing slash.

I did set the cookie domain and path as well as the server ip and all the rest of the settings as I normally would in Sedito, I have never had this problem before (I had installed 0.0.1 and 0.0.2 as well as several Sedito installs)

The problem is when you click the remember me check box ONLY, and within all the browsers I tested with
IE7
FF3
Chrome
Safari

I have also tried several skins now too

I had cleared out all my browser history, deleted all the cookies, restarted the computer (Vista 64 bit Ultimate)

Any other ideas??

Thanks

I get the same problem - how can we fix it?

Yes, I have received your PM. But I had no idea what might cause it. However, we need to gather statistics to sort it out.

What is important:

• PHP version and if Sessions are enabled
• Cotonti versions tested
• Your OS
• Browsers and versions tested
• Cookie domain and cookie path

So far, here is the details on registered problem occurrences:

I had this problem a while ago:

• PHP 5.2.6
• Cotonti 0.0.2
• Ubuntu 8.10
• Firefox 3.0.5, other browsers worked fine
• Cookie path set to /sedition. I noticed that if I set domain to localhost, it didn't work. But if I blanked the domain, it worked.

However, I tested it all the way round on 0.0.3 and trunk and the problem is gone for me now (Ubuntu 8.10, FF 3.0.6, tested localhost and various subfolders).

PHP 5.2.6 Sessions enabled YES
Cotonti 0.0.3
Vista Ultimate
Firefox 3.0.6, IE7, Has Problem
Cookie path set to /
Domain for cookies set to .illusionsgaming.com
Cookie life time set at default 5184000
Server IP setting is set to the accounts IP address which is a shared IP
Internal cache is enabled

Again this only happens when checking the "REMEMBER ME" button, if you leave it unchecked it logs in fine with no problem and everything works perfect.

I have played around with this settings above and have had no luck in getting it to work with the remember me button checked.

I hope this all helps, let me know if you need anything else.

Yes I tried with and without the period before the domain.

It is a Nix server

Server Specs
Centos 5 Enterprise
Apache 2.2
PHP 5.2.6
MySql 5

Yes I tried IP Check on and Off

Whats strange is that we have another domain running Sed 121 and have no problems with remember me and also we had Cotonti version 0.0.2 installed before with no problems and only starting have this once we installed 0.0.3.

It is not a big issue for me now, it was only an issue when I first installed and could not login to the admin with the fresh install however I wanted to document this and provide you with as much info as I could.
