No Login possible on fresh installation

[dungeonseeker]

About the wrong domain,
you could test this change:
Session.php
search for

Code Select Expand

@ini_set('session.cookie_domain', '.' . $parts[1]);
an replace this with

Code Select Expand

@ini_set('session.cookie_domain', '.' . $parts[0]);

Hi, not sure if it has the same effect but I did fix the issue by editing the globalCookies key to 0 in the settings table of the database.

I tried changing the globalCookiesDomain key to 0 first (as suggested earlier) but that didn't work for me. Only once I turn global cookies off could I login.

Edit - I should also add that I did suffer from the same bug as the OP in this thread. My forum URL is hxxp:dungeonseeker.i234.me [nonactive] (its actually a DDNS domain name) and the default install set the subdomain key to ".i234.me" by default.

Since this is a totally fresh install (that I don't really need for a few weeks anyway) I'm quite happy to give you access to the admin account, files, phpmyadmin account and carte blanche to do anything you like (including a fresh install) if you want to investigate. Just PM me and I'll send you the info.

in your case global cookies doesn't work and shouln't be allowed to enable,
since you provide a high chance to share account data with other services how are using i234.me also as service.

It enabled as part of a default install and the issue is that I then could not log in to make any changes at all.

Yes you're correct. I'm doing a site test run on my Synology NAS, the DDNS is from Synology, its running through Apache 2.4 and there are multiple services running on it. The thing is though, I don't need subdomain enabled cookies at all, I don't care if my other services cannot interact with SMF. I just can't understand why having them enabled caused this issue? All my subdomains are running on private virtual servers anyway.

OK, so after doing another reinstall I worked out that I need to make 2 changes to the database for login to work...

I must change globalCookies to 0 then manualy add localCookies and set it to 1.

Hope this is useful.
