Admin Login Page Loops forever

I just moved to a new host. Copied all the files. Everything seems to be working fine. But, I cannot log in to the admin

I type in the correct admin username and password, but I just loop back to the login page.

Any thoughts?

To move to new host - I downloaded all files, created a mysql dump, uploaded new files and imported new sql.

I also just used the fix cache program.

Also, I have tried to check and double check both config files. Alll looks ok.

Tried doing a fresh install and got same problem on a clean database...

This time I got this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function Execute() on a non-object in /home/touchal4/public_html/store2/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 61

showed up at the bottom of the login page?

For what it is worth. Here is the info from the fix_cache_key.php output:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/touchal4/public_html/store/fix_cache_key.php:43) in /home/touchal4/public_html/store/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 100

Recommendations

Possible appropriate cache directory for your site is: /home/touchal4/public_html/store/cache

Actual Information

Read DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE from configure.php: /home/touchal4/public_html/store/cache
Found SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY in database: /home/touchpla/public_html/store/cache

Now synchronizing...
Database now contains the following SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY: /home/touchal4/public_html/store/cache

Finished.
Security

PLEASE DELETE THIS FILE FROM YOUR SERVER NOW!!
Removing this file (fix_cache_key.php) from your server protects you from would-be hackers/predators who might seek to compromise your server.

What version of Zen Cart?

1.3.0.2

What version of PHP?

php 5.2.5

v1.3.0.2 is not compatible with PHP 5.
v1.3.7.1 or v1.3.8a or newer are compatible with PHP5.
I suggest you plan an upgrade sooner than later.
In the meantime, you might get some temporary relief by grabbing the updated /includes/functions/sessions.php from v1.3.8a to try on your server.

[ehdesign]

I'll do that, but I tried a fresh install of the newest version on still received the problem. Downloaded from zen site and installed. Still same problem.

Any ideas?

[ehdesign]

Sorry, I lied. Both the "old" and the new were versions 1.3...

I'll try grabbing the file and see if that helps.

Could you post a link to an upgrade how to?

[ehdesign]

brilliant.

You have indeed helped. I uploaded the sessions.php file and all is well.

I will begin an immediate upgrade plan. Thanks.

Tell me where to send the beer as a thanks!
