[Netdisco] Problem logging in to netdisco-frontend

[Jeffery Smith <jsmith@id...>]

I have been searching all over and yet am so far unable to find a solution.
 I suspect it is a simple solution since it is referenced on the log in
page, but I can't find it anywhere.

I have a working netdisco installation that previously allowed me to log in
with no problems.  Now whenever I try to log in I am placed right back at
the log in page without any errors.  If I use a non-existing user name, I
see an error.  If I use an incorrect password, I see an error.  But if I
use valid credentials, the page refreshes directly back to the login screen.

I have attempted resetting my password and I can see that it is being
updated in the database by connecting directly to postgres.  I tried adding
a new user via the command line and I can see the new user in the database,
but it exhibits the same behavior.

I have tried multiple browsers and multiple PC's all with the same effect.

The login page has this information below the log in prompt:

Administrator: If you are having login problems (Appears to accept password
but still sends you back to the login page) see the comments in *
netdisco_apache.conf*.


Unfortunately I do not have a "netdisco_apach.conf" file, but I do have a
"netdisco_apache2.conf" file.  However it does not contain any useful
comments for the problem I am facing.

As near as I can tell, all of my netdisco backend is working, the database
is updating, etc.

Can anyone tell me what I am missing?

Thanks!

Jeff

[Netdisco] Fwd: Problem logging in to netdisco-frontend

[Jeffery Smith <jsmith@id...>]

Update:  I did not find the cause of the problem I was experiencing,
however I was able to solve it by removing the netdisco-frontend and
re-installing it.
