unable to log in

I have a fresh install on MSServer 2003, Apache looks good, MySql looks good, php too; when I try to login I get: "Your session has expired. Please login again" message. There is an error from time zone setup and it complains about email and admin password change, but it should work regardless. Any idea?

then may be you must have forgot your password, or given it wrong. So please see if you can set up the email account and try to use "Forgot password" and give a try. If this is also not possible for you try new installition and see if that works for you or Please give the detail steps whether you migrated for some version x to the latest version kind of details.

if I try to log in with wrong password I get a different answer so it's not that; I have tried all that was suggested in related posts with no result; this si a new install, not upgrade;
which install approach is most successfull? window/linux/ with xampp or without?

Have no idea about Linux, as i never tried to install in linux platform, Currently i am using in Windows XP, Xampp+mysql.

Extend parameter to really high value.

Code: Select all

$tlCfg->sessionInactivityTimeout = 9900;

Somebody made poor implementation.

well... it was enough frustration for one day... so I deleted everything, updated my server, and re-installed everything in C:/Program Files folder(xampp). Once installation completed, I tried to login - I got rid of "preg' problem (latest php) and got hit with the "session expired" again. Tried again, the time zone error was not shown anymore and FINALLY I was able to login. Phew....
Our explanation is that patches for time zone when upgrading server fixed the timezone problem.
