There's a clear cache addon for firefox that I find VERY useful. Looks like a little broom.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1801
I am having the same login problem.. So do I add this code to the config file? If so which config file?
if(!version_compare(phpversion(),"4.3.3",">=")){
setcookie(
session_name(),
session_id(),
ini_get("session.cookie_lifetime"),
"/"
);
}
AND/OR
do I use sub-domain to make it all work????
ANY help would be great..
Thanks,
Denny
Have any of you thought to ask your hosts to upgrade their version of php? php4.4 fixed some nasty security problems ...

Can you please explain your specific problem to be sure we know which "same login problem" we're dealing with ?
A URL would help too, as well as your PHP version, your server operating system (windows/linux/home computer/etc)
I am having this prob as well now.... exactly as you've said above. I've installed zen-cart on another server and it worked fine, didn't do anything different this time, so I'm completely flummoxed...Quote:

I can get to the store front and I can create an account and login to it. Everything seems to be working fine. When I try to access the admin it says I have entered the wrong username and password. I have checked and rechecked and I am entering the correct username and password.
Zen Cart will be installed on a Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 with PHP 5.2.x. Since I have never used Zen Cart I have installed it on another server for testing before installing it on the other server. The server I am using to test it on is a Linux with Redhat 9 and is only running PHP 4.3.11. I was told by the hosting company that PHP can not be upgraded on this old server. Is there anything I can do to get Zen Cart to run on the server with PHP 4.3.11 just for testing purposes?
Thanks for any help you can give me on this.

4.3.11 shouldn't be causing you this problem.Quote:

Sometimes the PHP code might block it from happening properly, esp in older PHP versions, but 4.3.11 shouldn't be the problem AFIK.
If during installation you chose to ignore warning messages about PHP session settings, that could also be a problem.
Every time I've had the symptoms you describe it's been instantly resolved by flushing browser cache and/or turning off firewall software that was blocking session cookies.
How long has this been happening?
Did it ever work properly? How long ago?
I just installed Zen Cart 24 hours ago. I have not been able to login to the Admin at all. I did not get any errors when I installed Zen Cart. The install went smooth.
I just cleaned out the browser cache. I set my browser to accept ALL cookies. I shut off Windows Firewall. I restarted my PC and I still have the problem. I am using IE7.
The server I am using is a virtual server. The database is under the domain of the primary domain of the server. I believe it is also under a different IP. Would this make a difference? What if I was to use a domain that I know is using the same IP as the primary domain the server is using?
Thanks for the help on this...
Denny
I don't think changing the IP of your database would make any difference.Quote:

Can you upload the zc_install/techsupp.php file and post a link ?
