Hi I have a similar problem to a previous post, however it is a bit different. I had my forum on a free ISP (1asphost) and now have access to a another ISP where I would like to move my whole forum to. I copied the files over and I am not able to login now. (no members are able to login). The message that is coming up is "Your login was unsuccessful due to a cookie problem". All cookies are enabled and the forum worked perfectly on the free hosting ISP. I also downloaded the new forum (7) and uploaded that to my new server aswell. I get the same error as with my previous forum. Am i doing something wrong? Your help will be appreciated. Adriana. |

the two things i would try first are: 1. delete all cookies for the browser you are using and clear cache and try it 2. try a different brand of browser and try it ------------- ______________________ http://www.cfbtrivia.com" rel="nofollow - College Football Trivia |

Hi Thanks for your reply. Hate to say this, but i have already tried both these things. Its not only me that can't access it, it is everyone else that used to use the forum also. I am just wondering whether is could be a permission error on the actual server? Any ideas? Any help is appreciated. |

Cookies are associated with a domain name. when you moved, you most likely changed the domain name. Physically examine the temp internet files list for the cookies - sometimes win does a poor job of deleting them - clearing the cache doesn't do cookies. If you are using access and specify the physical path, it's probably changed after the move. If MS SWL, you probably have a different server and login. -------------

The cookie issue is common and there are loads of posts on it. Browser can not correctly set and read back in cookies if you use things like domain forwarding/masking, IP masking, etc. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
