    I followed your tutorial and it hasn't helped. Logging in just seems to direct me to the login page again, so I overwrote the admin folder & it's still doing it.

    Any other suggestions?

    You originally said it was telling you that you were using a bad username or password.
    Did following the FAQ resolve that?

    Yes. It no longer tells me I'm using the wrong info. It just gives me the login page again. I've looked at FILENAME_DEFAULT in case it was changed but it's still defined as index.

    Any ideas?

    Default Re: Cannot login to admin

    Followed your second tutorial & clearing my browsers cache worked...... until I tried to login to the other cart I'm working on (that I've only just installed today & moments later this issue started).

    Does this mean that I'll need to work on different carts in new browser windows? I'm using a tabbed browser so I've just been opening the pages I need in different tabs.

    Default Re: Cannot login to admin

    So I now know what the problem is. I need to clear my browser cache every time I want to login to a different admin. This is going to be a real pain. Does anyone have any suggestions to get around this?

    What version of PHP?
    Is this running on a live webserver or your own local PC/server?
