Admin login in a loop

Any clue why when I login for my classifieds admin console, I'm taken right back to my admin login page, instead of going into the admin console. I get the thank you for loggin in and am sent right back to the admin login page.

This is on a Red Hat 9, dedicated server, running Vb3.0.7 and PhotoPost 4.7 (I've down loaded 5.0.2 but wanted to get the classifieds fixed before changing anything else)

check and make sure the cookie settings in your database are correct settings 181-183

most likely your cookie prefix is incorrect

It should be if your using the default vb prefix bb

I bought ReviewPost and ClassifiedsPost together with PhotoPost, but so far I could only manage to get PhotoPost to integrate with vBulletin.

I give up on ReviewPost, and have been trying to get the cookie settings to work on ClassifiedsPost, but I've been run into the same problem: infinite loop of the admin screen.

-----------------------------------------------
Below are the paths I had set in CONFIG-INC.PHP
-----------------------------------------------
// PhotoPost Classifieds Version Number
$VERSION = "2.11";

// Path to your PhotoPost Classifieds installation - no end slashes
$PP_PATH = "/home/mydomain/public_html/ads";

//**************** MySQL Database Configuration ****************//

// PhotoPost Classifieds database host address, or leave as localhost
$host="localhost";

// PhotoPost Classifieds database name
$database="mydomain_ads";

// MySQL username and password to access PhotoPost Classifieds database
//
// These two variables are for the userid and password needed to access
// the PhotoPost Classifieds database named above.
$mysql_user="mydomain_ads";
$mysql_password="cppassword";

// User database host address, or leave as localhost
$host_bb="localhost";

// If you want to use a prefix for your database tables, enter it here.
// NOTE: This variable can only be set PRIOR to your first installation of PhotoPost Classifieds;
// existing databases will not be changed and you will be unable to connect if you change
// this variable after performing a default installation.
$pp_db_prefix = "ads_";

// User database MySQL database name
//
// This is the variable for the User Database; if you are using Internal
// as your registration system, then these variables are the same as the
// ones above. If you are linking to a message board system,
// thse variables should be set to the database, user and password for that
// database.
$database_bb="mydomain_forum";

// MySQL username and password to access user database
//
// These two variables are for the userid and password needed to access
// the PhotoPost Classifieds or BB database.
$user_bb="mydomain_forum";
$password_bb="cppassword";

-----------------------------------------------
Below are the paths I had set in CONFIG-INT.PHP
-----------------------------------------------
// We need to know the server paths to both your vB installation and your Classifieds installation
$vbpath = "/home/mydomain/public_html/forum";
$pppath = "/home/mydomain/public_html/ads";

// We need the URL path to your PhotoPost and vb installation
$url_path = "http://www.mydomain.com/ads";
$vb_urlpath = "http://www.mydomain.com/forum";

// The URL of your photo dir where your images are stored (with / at end)
$data_dir = "http://www.mydomain.com/ads/data/";

// If your PhotoPost tables have a prefix, put it here
// Example:
// $pp_db_prefix = "pp_";
$pp_db_prefix = "ads_";
-----------------------------------------------

My vBulletin settings (?) that I used for both PhotoPost and ClassifiedsPost are:
vBulletin prefix is vb3_
vBulletin cookie is bb

Would someone please tell/show me where I have done wrong ? Thanks

I ran into the same problem today. Like omegatron said, check your mysql table ad_setting and make sure the cookie settings in your database are correct in settings 181-183

Are you referring to a config setting or actual database tables? Sorry, I'm trying to fix what someone else installed, so am not as familiar with the setup.

I just did a fresh install yesterday and hit the same errors - again.

I thought this was fixed awhile ago (first came up in Jan for me), but the cookie field of bb is getting set in the paypal field of the mysql database - around the lines that omegatron mentioned.
