Bug? Admin login w/ cookies deactivated
« on: May 30, 2003, 12:51:55 AM »
Hallo,
I am currently testing 4images on a local server, where writing or reading "Cookies" is not possible because of incorrect settings (but that's another problem...), having the same effect as deactivating Cookies in the web browser security settings.

When I access the Admin Control Panel by opening /admin/index.php, I am asked to enter my username and password.
Usually (i.e. with cookies working), when both are correct, I see a white page telling me I am being redirected, and after a moment the control panel appears.
In my case (i.e. without cookies), I also see the mainly white redirection-page, but then end up with the same login screen again instead of being redirected to the control panel.

Apparently the login was correct, as I am assigned a session-id which is added to the address bar ( /admin/index.php?sessionid=[hash] ), but there seems to be something wrong with the redirection.

Is this a bug, and how can I fix this issue?

TIA, MarMac

I think Jan mentioned long time ago, that Admin Control Panel (ACP) requered cookies...or session...something like that.
Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
Please do not PM me asking for help unless you've been specifically asked to do so. Such PMs will be deleted without answer. (forum rule #6)

Does anybody know if/how that could be fixed?

Apparently everything else seems to work withour cookies.
