I moved my production site to a development server to upgrade and make some changes.

When I go to login the screen just loads but does not redirect to control panel. I have checked the sessions table in the DB and a new session is being created.

If I close the tab and reopen the login URL I get a white screen but the loader keeps spinning. If I clear cache and cookies and access the login the page loads.

I have added and changed the values for these variables
```
$config['cookie_domain'] = ''; 
$config['cookie_path'] = '';
$config['cookie_prefix'] = '';
```

Hi Kevpool1,

I’m sorry you’ve had trouble after moving your ExpressionEngine site!

First, make sure you have gone through the User Guide on Moving ExpressionEngine to Another Server.

Open /system/expressionengine/config/config.php and make sure you have the right URL:
```
$config['cp_url'] = 'http://domain.com/admin.php';
```
