Logging In, and the Problems Therin.

Post Posted: Post subject: Logging In, and the Problems Therin.

Hey Raini or eFlare or somebody! I was wondering if there was a problem with the server. Everytime I log in, I have to do it twice to appear logged in for some reason. It's not really any hassle, but I didn't know if other people were having this same problem or not. It's only been like that for the past week or two, and it does it even on other computers I use.

Like I said, it's no biggie, but I just thought you might want to know.

It does this with me too. Are you using Firefox? Because I've found that's the problem for me.

When I log in, I'm being recognized at once, but the second I leave the forum, I am logged out again. Gotta be something wrong with the cookies. :o

You have to be sure that you are visiting http://www.terraearth.com/forums/ WITH the slash on the end!

If you forget the slash on the end, the server redirects you to a different hostname (terraearth.boxxle.net) which doesn't work very well.

So, just remember to always add the slash at the end of the URL when you come here.

Looks like I'm staying logged in now - which seems weird to me, as I had bookmarked the forum under terraearth.com/forums/index.php (plus the http yadda yadda) before. But I'm not complaining, it works!

I've fixed this problem, you can now visit the forums without the slash at the end and it will work fine now. If anybody still cares! :-D
