if you are running win2k or winxp, check to see if IIS (internet information services) is installed running, if it is, remove it via add/remove programs>windows components then uninstall and reinstall apache. this is also good advice if you follow the tutorial precisely and don't get localhost to show up--check for IIS, especially if localhost calls a microsoft page in your browser instead of apache.

PHP Code:

define('USE_COOKIE_WORKAROUND', 1); 


from my experience, i had this problem and added this code and it didn't work at first...just an addition...this code should be placed at the beginning of the file, before this code:

PHP Code:

// type of database running 


i tried initially to put it at the end of the file, not knowing where to place it and apparently it doesn't work there, just about every new page i called in the browser asked me to log in again. at the beginning of the file, it works great. might save someone else some extra troubleshooting.
