Setting blnUseApplicationVariables = false seems to have remedied the problem.
( but don't ask me to explain WHY that solves it  )]]> Wed, 01 Dec 2004 21:37:21 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/login-problems-brinkster-pro_topic12683_post70733.html#70733 https://forums.webwiz.net/login-problems-brinkster-pro_topic12683_post70216.html#70216 Author: maxjack

I am using v7.9 and have had it installed and running flawlessly (manykudos to boRg) on Brinkster (pro) since last July.  I have made nomods, other than minor HTML tweaks.  In the past few weeks usershave suddenly began having login problems - logins that have worked formonths have stopped working.  The only way it seems to fix theproblem is to reset the user's password, inform the user of what it hasbeen reset to and have them login and change their password. They arethen able to access the forum for a while, but eventually (a day or 2)the problem reoccurs.

How this began happening certainly points to some change that occuredon the server.  I've probably read every post here dealing withlogin/cookie problems but still can't seem to track down theproblem.  It's happening for users using both IE and Firefox -some on PCs, some on Macs.

The one thing I've noticed is that a cookie named "server" is set witha value of 1 or 2. Brinkster says their servers are clustered toprovide load balancing - I'm wondering if this could have something todo with it.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
DH
