    Completely virgin install with example template.

    https://03408a6.netsolvps.com:8443/sitepreview/http/mehtalia.com/site/admin.php

    Installed fine… no errors.
    The site page shows up fine.

    However the admin login screen appears to loop back to the login screen.

    (note that the install directory was removed)

    Hi ebluefish001,

    I’m sorry for the trouble you are having after installation!

    Can you tell me the version of ExpressionEngine you installed?

    If you don’t mind, please open /system/expressionengine/config/config.php and edit or add this:

    $config['cookie_domain'] = ''; 
    $config['cookie_path'] = '';
    $config['cookie_prefix'] = '';

    That will override any potential cookie weirdness.

    And one more thing to try would be to empty the exp_security_hashes table in the database.

    Please let me know.

    Cheers,
