    Hello,

    I have a problem using the engine hosting and my expression engine site. When I enter my name and password I am brought again to the login page instead of the control panel. It doesn’t give the wrong password warning, and I can login from the front-end (but no CP access), however when I want to go to the CP I have nothing to see but the login page.

    Does anyone know about this problem or seen this issue?

    Thanks,
    Newee

    I have been having this issue lately.  If you add this to your config.php file,

    $config['admin_session_type'] = "s";

    and clear your cookies and cache, you should be able to get in.  Unfortunately this has not permanently resolved the problem, as I have to clear my cookies and cache every time I want to log in to the CP.

    Thank you very much! Perfect! Now I can access to the control panel. I didn’t do the cookies/ cache and it worked.

    Very good, thank you again!
