Can’t log in to site

Dummy log-in set up for testing purposes:

user: tester
pw: 2765c9f

Looks like wp-login.php has been edited and the form name + name of the submit button has been changed, the form part should look like:

<form name="loginform" id="loginform" action="wp-login.php" method="post">
<p><label>Username:<br /><input type="text" name="log" id="log" value="" size="20" tabindex="1" /></label></p>
<p><label>Password:<br /> <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" value="" size="20" tabindex="2" /></label></p>
<p class="submit">
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Login &raquo;" tabindex="3" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="wp-admin/" />
</p>
</form>

Have you edited that file at all? You said you replaced it, was that with an original version? Maybe somehow the permissions got screwy on the file and you can’t over write it?

Thanks, jaseone.

Earlier I replaced the wp-login file with that sexygeekgirl link (can’t find the address, but i think it’s in the codex). That still didn’t work. I deleted wp-login and replaced it with a fresh copy and it worked.

I didn’t get a chance to try your fix, but thanks very much for the suggestion!

I’m having a similar issue. I have two users on my system, https://jokerr.com, admin and myself and I cannot login with either account. I ‘ve tried using the “sexygeekgirl” wp-login file with no luck. Then like you I tried copying a fresh new wp-login.php file in its place. Nada. When going to /wp-login.php or /wp-admin all I get is a blank page…. Don’t know if it helps but I’m running WordPress 1.5.2 on Apache 1.3.x

I am having problems logging in to my weblog. The log in screen will blank out when I hit OK (on my work computer – a pc). At home on my Mac it gives me an error message and doesn’t accept the username or password. Any help or suggestions would greatly be appreciated – Thank you!
