By ClanRoot on

I've created my first (admin) accout, I have the correct password, my database is set up, everything is working except that I can't login at all. Whenever I enter my username and password, it just reloads the current page. Nothing changes. I don't get it, I installed this thing as directly from the install instructions as I could.

Newest PHP, IIS 6, newest MySQL.

Please help.

Also, when I try to enter the WRONG password, I get the appropriate error... just in case this helps at all.

In my case I am having the same problem, except that I cannot even create a first user. Looking at my database I notice that it is not even populating it's access_log. I have another [older version] copy of drupal running on the same account & database which is fine.

I have run the same Drupal [4.3.0] on another system without any DB problems. I am using MySQL 3 with Apache 1 on FreeBSD, so it looks like it's not an OS issue.

Have a suspicion that it's something to do with me running it in a subfolder of the site ...

I set it to http://thomasbarker.com/freespirits

Not to http://www.thomasbarker.com/freespirits, which I should have.
