Default Can't login to admin panel after database transfer
Hi!

Just transferred my database and vb files from one server to another copying mysql/var/database to new sever via fxp.

Database seems fine, i can access it via phpmyadmin on new server and all posts, members and stuff seem to be there.

Moreover php kinda works and when i try to log into the admin panel, i'm taken again to the login screen, no password error screen, no weird messages...

Also, if i log off and enter forum index, i can see post counts, forum descriptions, forum structure, amount of users, amount of posts... EVERYTHING seems ok. However:

- if i click on any nick, i'm taken to the password recovery form
- if i try to log in from forums home, i'm taken to the password recovery form
- if i click on any forum or subforum, No forum specified error message appears.
- forum moderatos list appear fine
- signup page bounces back to signup page...

Surfing the db with phpmyadmin and everything seems totally fine!

I had the same problem when I installed vB on the server for the first time after configuring it one my pc for a while.
There seems to be a cookie from somewhere on the site causing a conflict with vB's cookies. Try to delete all cookies from that particular domain, then try to log in.

It's not cookie related, already tried that.

It's pretty weird the behaviour of the new server, i assume php AND mysql are working fine since posts, members, forums, descriptions and more appear fine!

What else can i try?!?!

Any time a login fails it's almost always the result of cookies. If deleting the ones you thought were the problem didn't help, try deleting all your cookies.

I tried with different browsers and obviously on I.E. I emptied ALL of them, (couldn't see a way to selectively delete cookies).

Is clicking on a forum and getting redirected to "invalid forum number" or clicking on login and getting redirected to "password request form" normal behaviours based on cookies?!

hmm, maybe your server uses php4.2.x which makes problems for vb lower than 2.2.6 (register globals off and so on..)

try to update to 229 and see if it helps

What's the deal!??!

Old server was running 4.0.6 smoothly!

New one has 4.3.0

Would PHP3 solve the problem?

Well, Xenon did raise an interesting point I didn't think of. Maybe you can ask your host to switch register_globals on for your account or maybe you are able to do that yourself (dedicated server or so?).
