Hi,
I’ve got a dev environment that’s working but it’s using a blank DB.
I wanted to make use of a backup of the prod DB so that we could develop from that, but when restoring the prod DB, it won’t let me login. There’s no error, the login screen just refreshes.
Any ideas what could be wrong? I have checked that they are both on the same version (2.1.3).

Have you tried going to system/index.php and setting the $debug variable to 1? Maybe there’s a php error that’s being hidden

Thanks for the assist, Kay.

Typically, I don’t restore the exp_sites table when moving between a prod environment and a test environment.
