    Default Clean install, admin won't log in. WAMP

    I'm working on a fresh install of 1.5.1, using WAMP: EasyPHP 5.3.8.1 Both programs are fresh installed.

    The installs go great, the db appears to set up per usual, but once I rename the admin and attempt the temporary login using the password I told it to use, nothing happens.

    I checked the user privilege files in the db and the Admin password I created shows, but shows no logins.

    Am I not thinking to do something simple that requires doing? This is most odd.

    nothing happens.
    Do you get a blank screen or just nothing and remains on the same screen??

    Default Re: Clean install, admin won't log in.

    I have had this prob before with WAMP, I can't even think how to explain it, but to fix it I had to change my admin path (in the admin/includes/config.php) from
    localhost to 127.0.0.1 or the other way around, apparently you can also fix it by doing something to your hosts file.

    But before you do that try logging in the other way

    eg if you are accessing your admin via

    /localhost/your_admin/

    try
    /127.0.0.1/your_admin/

    I am sure there was apost on here about it as well
