Hello,

I just installed drupal on my local server, under a subdirectory (http://dump/drupal):

  • Apache2
  • PHP 5.2.0RC2
  • MySQL 5

And for some reason, after creating the initial account I can't stay logged in, I get dumped at an "Access Denied" page, and I get logged out...

I've tried the following:

  • Clearing all cookies
  • Clearing the sessions table
  • Commenting out lines 973-5 of user.module

If anyone has any idea what could be causing this on a fresh install... :(

Why don't you re-install to see if the same problem occurs.

Since it's a fresh install then you won't lose anything.

I'm more than a bit put off that three weeks later, there still isn't a solution...

EDIT: I just tried it today, and it works, funny... however this should still be considered a major bug.

Maybe you're experiencing this issue: http://drupal.org/node/92802 .
Use mysqli or try the patch.

I Bet you anything that it is your OS/Browser xp/vista user. ;)

I have had the same problem on my MS/IE7 laptop with the login bumping me off. However, ON my other workstation using Firefox or IE6 I don't have a problem with getting the boot from my drupal (5.1) site.

In frustration I search and found this thread. Guess what When I tried to log in to Drupal.org to reply to this thread using my laptop IE7, NO GO. I wanted to respond to say I was pretty sure that this is issue is a IE7 problem as the laptop w/IE7 is the only workstation I have this problem with.

This is confirmed by the fact that once I closed IE7 and opened Firefox I was able to login to to respond to this thread and stay logged in to my Drupal site.

BTW: over 2 hrs now and have not been bumped by my Drupal site.
Maybe some one more energetic than I will be willing to dive into the IE7 issue and Drupal login. For me I am just going to make sure an keep using a superior browser
