Upgraded from 4.6.9 to 4.6.10 , and now cannot login using IE6 (firefox is fine)

Posted by mediafrenzy on October 20, 2006 at 1:45am

I've just upgraded my site from 4.6.9 to 4.6.10, and while everything seems to be fine in Firefox, when I went to test it in IE6, I cannot login.

I've tried several user accounts, and while the username appears on the "logged in users" block, the user login box is still shown, and I cannot access member only areas....

Any suggestions?

Delete IE cookies?

Posted by mediafrenzy on October 20, 2006 at 1:51am

It appears that by deleting my IE cookies, I can now login.... though this would not help my users.... if they've been previously logging into my 4.6.9 website, and then I upgrade to 4.6.10, and suddenly they all find that they cannot login to the site anymore...

I'll do some more tests and post my findings here.
