Keep Asking For Credentials

Post by jasuncongdon »

Everytime I log into the admin section and try to navigate to another section, say... to change the theme... I am returned to the login screen. No matter where I go, it does this. I have already checked for cookie enablement and that is fine. And actually it worked before, but I had made some changes to my server and I reinstalled s9y. When I did I completely removed the database itself, and the entire root that s9y was installed in. After reinstalling, I get this now.

Any insight?

Hi!

Make sure your server has PHP sessions enabled and has a session.save_path properly set to a writable directory.

Both are setup correctly. I did have it working for a short time last night... then I wanted to put it in it's own subdomain, and site root. After reinstalling I started having this issue... the site root is wide open for access hence being able to install s9y... I run a php based photo gallery on a couple of my other sites and they are working correctly.
Here is a link to my phpInfo...

Hi!

After moving your blog, did you clean your HTTP browser cookies and made sure you changed the paths in the s9y configuration everywhere to indicate the new location?
