Helpful info for IE users

I'm posting this as an FYI in case anyone else runs into this problem:

This happened to me using IE7... It may apply to IE6 too, but I no longer have that to test. Firefox always worked perfectly. I'm guessing it has to do with the way session cookies are being handled.

Problem:
I was having 2 issues.

If I logged out and then tried to log back in, I got a message "There is still a valid login for your browser.Please use this link... at first if you would like to renew your session."
When I logged in, I was taken immediately to the "add test project" page. (I could not get to the home page no matter what I did.)

Solution:
After spending several hours, I discovered a very simple fix: I edited my PHP.INI file to include the following. (This is under the [SESSSIONS] section of the file.)

Code: Select all

session.cookie_domain = example.com

(example.com should be the name of your domain.)
