Resolved – turns out that I has set the upload_max_filesize parameter in my php.ini to 2048M. That caused the inability for any of my PHP scripts to allow logins. Weird. I set it back to 1024M, and it worked – I can log in to WordPress, Gallery2, or kPlaylist. None of those worked with the upload_max_filesize set too big.

Go figure.

I’ve been tearing my hair out for two days with the login problem. I’ve Googled and searched here for answers, but nothing works. I’ve reset my password, cleared the cache, cookies, etc.

However, I’ve discovered something interesting. When I try to login to ANY of my PHP based apps, I get the SAME phenomenon – that is, when I enter my username and password, it simply re-displays the login screen. This is for WordPress, Gallery2, and kPlaylist. The SAME things is happening on each PHP based app.

This also happens regardless of what machine I’m on (home, work, laptop, desktop), so I don’t think it’s a local machine issue (hence the failure of clearing cookies/cache/etc.).

I’m using Ubuntu Edgy Eft, Apache2, PHP5, ISPconfig, mySQL 5.

I suspect it’s a redirect issue, but I’ll be damned if I can figure out where to begin! Any ideas on what logs I can use to start troubleshooting this? I can’t get into ANY of my PHP apps, WordPress included. I can provide password info to anyone who can help me.

Ok, never mind. Just found it in the index.php file. Thanks a ton, it worked just fine.
I thought that WP hid the empty categories, but I entered a post in a non-general category, but it still didn’t show up. So what is the default behavior supposed to be? Do you know?
Thanks again, KyleGM!

In which file to I find the <?php wp_list_cats(); ?> code? Thanks in advance.

Ok, never mind. I could never get WordPress to install using PHP 5 at all. I went to 4.whatever of PHP, and it worked swimmingly. Go figure.
Using PHP 4.3.8, MySQL 4.0.20d, phpMyAdmin 2.5.7, and the latest WordPress, with IIS 6.0 on Winders Server 2003. It works.

I’m using a nightly build, PHP 5, and MySQL, IIS 6 on a Winders Server 2003 box, and I’m getting the infamous blank page on the /wp-admin/install.php.
Any ideas on where to start? The database is created (name only, no tables or anything), I can log in as the user I defined in the wp-config file via the console.
But, when I go to https://squish.us/wp-admin/install.php all I see is a blank page.
Other thread I’m now looking at don’t seem to have a solution. Ideas? Thoughts?

Hi Podz,
Yep, I’m using Firefox. Tried using IE6, just to see if it made a difference. It does not. I read another thread, and tried using the nightly install, but still no joy.
Frustrating. The individual components seem to work (PHP, MySQL), but still a blank page on the install.php file.
Argh.

Argh. I have the same issue with WP and IIS 6.0 on Server 2003.
IIS is ok
PHP is ok
I think MySQL is ok (can log in via the console).
But the url: https://squish.us/wp-admin/install.php only shows a blank page.
The user name and login info for MySQL is correct. I don’t need to be already logged into MySQL do I?
Any help is appreciated.
