Admin can't login

Monday 15 June 2009 1:50:05 pm

Hi everyone,

I have just installed Ezpublish sucessfully, however, I can't login as an Admin. I know the the userid and password, but it wouldn't log me in. After I typed the userid and and the password, it refreshed the page and went back to the login page again. Could someone please let me know I did wrong? Thank you in advance for any help.

Cheers,

Is this eZ Publish 4.1.x?
Have you installed eZ Publish on a subdomain or something?

To see if you have problems with session cookies, comment out (//) line ~575 in lib/ezutils/classes/ezsession.php where you have this code: "session_regenerate_id();".

"there is no comment out."

No it's not commented out, I asked you to try to comment it out.
As in change "session_regenerate_id();" to "//session_regenerate_id();".

Hi All,

All this time I have tried to do different things to see if I could login, but it didn't let me log in. I have started the server from scratch and reinstall everthing from the latest, but the problem is not fixed.

Could someone some please let me know I am missing? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello,

I have the same problem with version 4.1.2.

All my website was working ok and I was away during 2 weeks of holydays. When I returned, the admin (and any user) cannot login into the system ! Nobody made any change on the site, in the database or the files... I am sure the login/password is ok as it is registered in firefox and there is no warning like "your login password is not ok". When entering the right login password, the authentication seems to be right against the database, a blank screen appears (it loads the page) and it returns on the login page...

I tried to patch the file as proposed by André R. but the problem remains.

I also tried to export the database, then I re-import the database into a new one, in case of a problem into the first database. But the problem persist.

As there is no error message, I do not not know how to handle this. I tried to enable the debut output into the site.ini file, but I did not find any relevant information.

The only information I get is some warnings when checking the database into phpmyadmin, but I am not sure it is linked to this problem. I have:

Problems with indexes of table `ezcontentobject_attribute`
PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `id`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `contentobject_id`
Problems with indexes of table `ezcontentobject_name`
PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `contentobject_id`
Problems with indexes of table `ezenumobjectvalue`
PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `contentobject_attribute_id`
Problems with indexes of table `ezkeyword`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `keyword`
Problems with indexes of table `ezkeyword_attribute_link`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `keyword_id`
Problems with indexes of table `eznode_assignment`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `contentobject_id`
Problems with indexes of table `ezurlalias_ml`
PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `parent`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `parent`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `action`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `action_type`
More than one INDEX key was created for column `text`

Any help is appreciated, as I am a beginner with Ezpublish and have no idea what to do with this issue...

Jean-Francois.

I truncated the ezsession table from phpmyadmin but the problem persists.

When I try to log as admin, two rows are created in the empty ezsession table:

Via gui cache cleaning is trivial: it is the default page of the admin tab.
We cannot allow this to be done without proper user credentials though, as it would be an invitation to dos'ing the site...
