    Hi, I’m running a wordpress multisite installation on wampserver and everything is fine with that. I needed to create a copy of this local multisite, still in local space. I replicate the multisite with new database, everything went fine and I can see all the pages working.

    The problem is that I can’t login in the administration panel.
    The error says that cookies are blocked, but of course they’re not!
    I tried to disable all the plugins, but nothing works for me.

    The “mother” multisite is still working fine, no troubles.

    Any help?!
    thanks

    How did you change the URLs?

    ok I manage to enter the admin panel.
    I update these files:

    .htaccess
    .wp-config.php
    .wp-blogs
    .wp-site
    .wp-options

    with the new domain and the new path of the local site.
    Then in config.php I delete the auth key and paste these lines:

    define(‘ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH’, ‘/’);
    define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);
    define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ”);
    define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ”);

    and I finally enter the admin panel.

    For me, the problem was that after copying my dev site to live, I had not reverted my wp-config.php file back to the dev version. Specifically, there’s a line
    define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'domain.name.com');
    I should have changed its value from the live domain back to the dev domain, and I had failed to do so. Hopefully this helps somebody else.
