[Typo3] Login-error

[Nicklas af Ekenstam]

Hello.

This is my first post to this list and I apologize for it being a 
request for help rather than an introduction. There is a short 
introduction in the end of this message for those of you who are interested.

Anyhow.

I recently installed version version 3.7.0 on my RH9 box running 
Apache/2.0.49 and PHP 4.3.9 and have it up and running just fine except 
for this pesky login error saying:

	Login-error
	No user logged in! Sorry, I can't proceed then!
	(You must have cookies enabled!)

I have searched the archives of this mailing list and found records of 
other users having the same problem but I didn't find a solution.
In my case the problems started when I modified the base template for 
the site I was configuring. All of a sudden I got this error message and 
logging in again doesn't work.

I've tried both Mozilla Firefox 1.0.4 and IE 6.0.2900.2180 sp on XP Pro 
SP2 without any success. However when I change to a different computer, 
running W2K3 server and 6.0.3790 I can log in just fine from there. (I 
still, however, cannot log in from my regular computer after having 
logged in and out from the W2K3 box.)

I realize this suggests a problem with security settings or cookies with 
my regular computer but I find it odd that this problem only seems to 
show up when I fiddle with templates and that I have no similar 
experiences with all the other cookie using sites I frequently use 
(typo3 and other). Nothing I do (clearing my cache, deleting cookies 
etc) seem to have any effect either.

Any hints on what may be causing this problem and how to solve it would 
be very appreciated. Thanks.

PRESENTATION:

My name is Nicklas af Ekenstam. Nille for short.
I work as a programmer, mainly in VS.NET but I'm also fairly well 
traversed in PHP, Perl and Python, for a small Swedish web hosting 
company called Pistol Internet Hosting. (http://pistol.se/)
I recently was asked we are able to host TYPO3 based web sites and 
decided to find out myself by installing it myself and see what happened.

After a few minor changes, primarily with graphics support, in our PHP 
setup I had it up and running perfectly and needless to say I didn't get 
any sleep that night as I stayed up all night just playing around with 
TYPO3. I am very impressed with this excellent piece of software and 
hope to use it on a regular basis from now on.

I will try my best to convince my company to support TYPO3 development 
financially and perhaps even write a few extensions myself in the future.
