Login not working - no redirection

Hi

The past week it has been impossible to login on my XOOPS-community. This goes for users as well as myself being and admin. I can actually login but the redirection does'nt work. The strange part of this is that the only thing I know I have done is to back up my site, downloading a complete backup zip-file and downloading a copy of the database.

The reason for making this backup was for installing a copy of the site. I am using v. 2.2.x and have never got it working properly. A year ago I tried to downgrade but that only resulted in a total mess. So now I installed a mirror of my site at a different domain, just for trying to resolve this downgrade problem. The mirror site has the same problem with the log in/redirection.

I have been talking to my web hosting support and they clame there is no problem at the server side.

Greatful for any help to solve this problem as soon as possible!

I've been saying this a lot lately, but you might try turning off your antivirus/firewall before logging in to your XOOPS site. This usually works for me when I have login issues.

Hope this helps!

BTW: In my MySQL database admin the following code is viewed:

Connection strings

$dbh=mysql_connect ("localhost", "dreng_karl", "") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("dreng_gimle");

I have checked the mainfile.php and it uses the correct db_user/name/password. A similar message is shown under all of my db:s (even at my other domain where I installed the mirror site).

Anyone? My users are getting rather impatient and I can't do anything about it...

I'd try the obvious things first:
1) clear your /templates_c & /cache folders (except for index.html)
2) clear your sessions table in your MySQL database

Do you use custom sessions? (Admin > Preferences > General Settings)

Yes but no, that did'nt work. And I can't remember nor check if I use custom sessions because of the redirection problem.
