Hi All

I have this strange problem. After a few days, the user cannot login. When he tries to login, the login page will keep re-appearing. Sometimes, clearing the browser cache (saved cookie) seems to fix the problem, but there is one user who said it does not fix the problem for him and he still cannot login (he was able to login before - but now the login keeps re-appearing when he tries to login).

This is affecting many of my users, including myself (admin). For myself, clearing the browser cache (saved cookie) seems to fix it. But this does not work for some users.

I am at a loss. Can somebody advise?

Thank you very much in anticipation.

I had this problem a while ago. The theme seemed to give problems. We changed to default theme, and after login again I had no problems logging ind and we changed the theme back to original.

If I understand the concept ok :) It has to do with the session. This setting will keep the session information but create a new.

If I understand wrong please write, would be nice to know in a similar situation.

See here for more info.
