I just went to your forum and logged in with the default username and password without a problem and went straight to the admin area without a problem.

I used IE with the security settings set at medium and had no proble what so ever.

It could be that your cookie index in IE has become corrupted (often happens in IE).

To reset it, first delete all cached internet files then delete your cookie cache from from Internet tools. This will reset your cookie index in IE.

boRG,

That was it...  Bit what a waste of my time trying to troubleshoot.

It was the cookies.  I deleted all offline content and that did not work by its-self.  Now the only question I have left is about mail and SMTP authentication.

Thanks!!!!

Dan

I seemed to have solved my problem temporarely, I renamed my admin directory and put a password on it, and deleted the code in common that made if refer to the insufficent data. But it works and I still have security...so YAY!

Ron I think you read my post wrong, it's not the forum files you delete, it's all your cached files in Internet Explorer followed by IE's cookie cache.

Go to Internet Tools in IE, then delete all Cached Internet Files followed by Deleting all cookies this will then reset your corrupted cookie index in Internet Explorer.

I did that..... I think your mixing me up with djmiller, because how can you go to my forum when I didn't give you a link?

I did however find the problem. When I uploaded my files after trying to upgrade I forgot to upload the right common.asp file for the admin section so it was pointed at the wrong database.

Sorry, it does get confusing when people post about simular but different problems in the same topic. It's much simpler if people could start a new topic.
