I have to login after any action
abaris - December 6, 2006 - 14:32
After a fine installation I got my first trouble:
After any action (clicking submit after changing password, entering any admin's place...) I am asked (again) for my user and password. I type them in (the ones that where sent by email) and go to the place that I wanted. The trouble itself isn't having to type my pass, the trouble is I can't change my password, add modules or do anything. When I click the submit button to apply the changes I have to login again and after that the changes are not done.
I work on a debian testing with apache2, mysql5 and php5.
Thanks a lot for your help and sorry about my horrible english.
Some session handling
Some session handling problems with PHP 5.2 were fixed recently. Update to 4.7.x-dev from the link on the right sidebar here.
Me too
... with the latest versions of everything.
Any other ideas?
you are sure you are running
you are sure you are running the 4.7.4 - dev version ? and not the 4.7.4 public release ?
you can get the 4.7.4 dev release (what will likely become drupal 4.7.5) from http://drupal.org/drupal-4.7.x-dev
you can manually patch Drupal to run properly on PHP 5.2
use PHP 5.2 as a search term and seek out the proper patches.
Switching to anon
From the logs you can see whats happening - all the actions are as anon. It seems to be switching to the anon user. I'll check the patches ....

Two possible reasons
Two possible reasons mentioned in the Troubleshooting FAQ
http://drupal.org/node/77106
1. Cache problem: Disable Drupal's cache.
2. Login confusion with www vs no-www: Use an apache rewrite to use only one.
