I am trying to sort around an older Drupal site prior to upgrading it. I have the site working on a standard server in a folder testsite.
I wanted to set in up in xampp. I moved the usual files and created the database. I created a localhost version of the settings.php with appropriate changes to the database and the baseurl. I modified the base for modrewrite in the .htaccess. I am using the absolutely latest XAMPP. Modrewrite is on and the configuration files look appropriate. The main part of the site functions fine. What does not function well is the administration function. When I login, I see the administration menu but it kicks me out. I get different performace depending on whether I have cleaned the cache or not. Obviously, it is a problem with modrewrite. What else needs to be changed?

See http://drupal.org/node/201871 and especially the "Login doesn't "stick" after upgrade to PHP 5.2+" link.
Thanks for the suggestion
It works nicely.
