Re: problem with customer login

First, upgrade to v1.3.9d ...

Clear the cache and cookies for your site ...

Does the problem still exist?

Are all of your computers that you are testing with windows 7 64bit? :unsure:

Re: problem with customer login

I too am having the same problem. Windows Server 2008, PHP5, IIS7, MYSQL5.1, PORT80, ZEN CART1.3.9h.

Same problem on ALL browsers, templates.

User cannot login, admin can (and make changes)

Did a re-install. Session cookies in PHP are working and verified. I get the same error as Alhakeem2001.

VERY frustrating as I need this site to be online in 1 week.

http://wiseminds.no-ip.com/castelgrisch/store/

is the site....

Re: problem with customer login

I was able to create an account ... but once logged off I cannot log back in ...

I am not seeing the immediate problem ...

What happens if you switch to the Classic Template?

Re: problem with customer login

That was for ADWheeler ...

My question to you is what is the -3 on your posted URL? That is not your site when you go to the link ...

Also, are you using some kind of rewrite in your .htaccess file?

What happens if you turn it off and try your site?

the -3 is for the weblink to redirect to my original website, I don't think that made the problem ! what do you mean by using rewrite in your .htaccess ? I didn't modify this file ! and how to turn that off ? By the way I have many of the .htaccess files on my website! should I turn them all off?
