No One Can Login To Forum.

[Droid2875]

Hello there. I am having an issue with logging into my forum. No members can login and neither can any of the staff of admins. All it does is redirect back to the login page or the forum and treat you as a guest. I have checked the .htaccess file, I have checked cache, I have tried different browsers. I cannot figure this out. Can any one please help me?

Welcome to the site Droid2875

Are you able to log into the forum? Have you installed any mods, if so can you list them please?

[Droid2875]

No, I am unable to login either. It just redirects me to the the forum again as a guest. I have even tried replacing the SMF files with fresh ones and the same thing occurs. I am at a loss and my 93 thousand members are getting upset.

Can you provide a link to your forum?

Fresh pair of eyes - you never know

What MODS are you using?

[Orangine]

any errors in Apache log? do you have a custom .htaccess file?

[ziycon]

As Shambles said, if you can post a link we can have a better look and see whats going on.

[Droid2875]

THe link is http://celebutopia.net/forum


I am using a few different mods but nothing changed. It was working one minute, the next nothing at all. I have noticed that the url keeps changing from with the http to without it. I have removed the custom .htaccess files and still nothing.

Could your host have changed something that would have caused this?

[ApplianceJunk]

celebutopia.net/forum does not load for me.

[Shambles]

^--- what he said

The main site does, but not the forum.

Are you busy trying things out at this time?

[Orangine]

it does when you go by http://celebutopia.net/forum/index.php
it looks that you have index.html in the forum directory, try renaming it and see what happens


also you dont have the www/non-www links sorted

Hi Droid2875 can you setup a test user and password on your forum please, you can pm me the details, just a normal member.

You wont be able to register either.

[Droid2875]

It seems that no matter what I do, the forum will not allow anyone to login or register. I am worried that something is really messed up and that I am going to lose my forum.

[Shambles]

I managed to register but as you say, it won't let me login.

If I change the URL of the login page to add "www." then it won't accept my password, probably adding more weight to this:

also you dont have the www/non-www links sorted

In fact the whole page source has a mixture of "http://celebutopia.net/forum/" and "http://www.celebutopia.net/forum/"

^^ it's probably due to the fact that the cookie works for non-www, where after logging in you're redirected to www version, you need to sort out his and I'm guessing the problem will vanish

[Droid2875]

Can anyone tell me where I would fix this? I have been looking at the code for days and I think I need a fresh pair of eyes.
