I cant log in too the admin/ pages

[lol749]

HI,

I just installed cmsmadesimple-1.2.5.tar.gz on linux ( php-5.0.4-10.5, mysql-4.1.20-1.FC4.1 ),
everything went smoothly during the install.

But I cant log in to the admin/ pages.

I'm using the correct username/password but I just get the login page
- no errors reported, it just doesn't seem to do anything.

Anyone know what's wrong with my setup?

Can be a conflict on the server rules...

Try to rename /admin to something else and correct config.php to the same and see if that helps.

I had the same problem.  I would give the correct login and it kept returning me to the login prompt.

In my case, I had over-secured my php installation by restricting session cookies to SSL sessions.  My php.ini file had the folllowing line:
session.cookie_secure = 1

I changed it to the following

session.cookie_secure = 0

and restarted Apache.  All is working now.
