This is on Redhat 7.2 with all updates installed,
including these software packages:
Apache 1.3.20-16
MySQL 3.23.41-1
php-4.0.6-7
IRM-1.3.4

Created database fine without errors but If I try to
login using Admin/admin I get a blank page - not even
an error page using either MS Exploder v5.5 or 6.0 and
Netscape on Linux or Mozilla, or Lynx.

If I use any other name and password, I get bad
password BUT it allows me to change any information in
setup, including admin password. I added my own name
and password and it is still the same. On login, I
get a error page, on logout....its the same. Almost
like the host is unresolvable.

    I found the fix for this:
    our server is on an internal LAN, only assessable from our
    technicians and customers whom have been supplied a password
    to access it. It must be done over an encrypted tunnel.
    Because its on a private ip address range, the apache conf
    is set for the server name by its IP address.

    I monitored this by using ethereal and capturing the packets
    from client to server and found that "somewhere" the login
    script was really looking for http://your.server.com I
    browsed through all files until I found the corresponding
    entry at the bottom of /irm-root/include/config.inc.php I
    changed this to the servers IP address and fixed user and
    admin logins.

    As noted by 'nobody', this problem is almost always due to
    an incorrect entry in the /irm_root/include/config.inc.php
    file... usually the last entry that asks for your host
    name. Also check to make sure that your
    username/password/database are keyed in correctly in this
    file.
