Forum Log In issue

2011-09-23, 23:26

I am getting Invalid Redirect URL (http://mersenneforum.org/) when I try to log in using my ID and pass.
ID is YURA

I started getting that for my linux machines as of about a month ago, but my Win machines redirect OK. In my case with linux, I am logged in. I just go back a page and refresh. All is fine from there. I do choose the "Remember me?" checkbox.

Thank you. Your advice worked. But it is strange behavior...

You're welcome - glad it worked for you. I agree something is odd, but haven't mentioned it to admin - maybe they will notice this thread...

Read here for the reason why http://mersenneforum.org sometimes won't work.

Until recently, the forum had separate cookies for mersenneforum.org and www.mersenneforum.org. We changed a setting in the software to use the same cookie for both.

We think that just deleting the cookies will fix the issue because a new cookie will be created when you log in afterwards.
