Internet Explorer
Permalink 1 user found helpful
I have several installs of Concrete5 on my server.
On internet explorer 9 whenever myself or anyone tries to login it just clears the login information and doesnt log you in. When I login on Chrome or Firefox it shows that person had logged in as the counter increases.
I have tried this on several different computers and everyone has the same issue that they are unable to login.

Hi Korvin,
I have checked the settings for cookies it is set to low and also is listed
as a site to always allow and it still does not let you log in.
Is there any other suggestions?

Send me a link to the site in question and login details, I'll see if I can get it working
Is there a email to send the info to you?

Sure, email to Korvin@concrete5.org
I am having the exact same issues. I have read about similar problems with other users and an apparent fix but it does not work for me. any help with this???
Did anyone here find an answer?
I have just come across a really bizarre problem with my latest site, which I built using Firefox and checked occasionally in IE8 (and it is utf-8)
However, it turns out that on someone else's machine, when they try to log in using IE9, *sometimes* (but NOT always!) nothing happens. It apparently accepts the password OK, in that you get no visible error message, yet no edit bar appears. This is particularly weird because it doesn't seem totally reproducible - sometimes IE9 lets them in fine.
Firefox, unsurprisingly, causes no trouble. It's a real pain as it's not my machine so I can't properly test. And saying 'hey, just edit in Firefox' seems a bit of a cop-out, considering there are a ton of unenlightened IE-users out there.

I have had someone look at it and tell me that it works fine. Had them
remote into my machine and showed them what happens. They still cant
replicate the problem. At this time I tell people to use Firefox or Chrome
to login. IE lets you login and then it records it as a login but doesnt
actually show you logged in. It happens on every machine I have tried using
IE9
Hopefully a solution will be made soon.

I too am having the exact same problem - except this isn't just with an editor that needs to sign in, the large majority of our users are experiencing this problem.
We have paid membership portions of our site, so this is a HUGE problem. We NEVER EVER Had this happen until a few days ago and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix it!!!

same problem here, with IE9. login and toolbars work fine in chrome and firefox. does anyone have issues with older versions of IE?
Yes, I have found it to sometimes work and sometimes not work on older versions of IE, but pretty much everyone with IE9 has this problem. I say pretty much because every now and then for the weirdest reasons it WORKS, but then suddenly it stops working again.
At this point this one reason alone is about enough to make my client want to leave Concrete5 and try something else. I wonder if other CMS's have this problem with IE9 not logging in?? I hate IE personally, but unfortunately over 1/3 of our users use it.
If anyone has ANY ideas on how to fix this PLEASE SHARE!!!!!!!!!

Hmm. Are you sure there couldn't be some JavaScript issues at play here in your theme or an add-on? Can you replicate the issue on IE9 using one of our trials? I just tried concrete5 in IE9 on one of our trials without any issues.
I've had the same problem with multiple clients for a while now.
Has anyone found a solution to this?

Hi everyone,
This might not be the answer for everyone but in my case it proved to be.
The problem is of course caused by IE no surprise there
Check your domain name because :::
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;316112#top...
Security patch MS01-055 prevents servers with improper name syntax from setting cookies names. Domains that use cookies must use only alphanumeric characters ("-" or ".") in the domain name and the server name. Internet Explorer blocks cookies from a server if the server name contains other characters, such as an underscore character ("_").
To test your navigator for session problems a simple php code
and refresh this page a few times , in my case hello increased in chrome and FF and remained 1 in Ie (will be interesting to see if this happens to you all too)
The solution according to Microsoft is to rename domain or use ip address O_o
both not very user friendly solutions but what do you expect from them.
In my case it is just a staging domain name with "_" so for now i guess everyone will be using FF.
Also in Ie you could check View > web privacy policy see if your site cookies etc are being blocked (this being said it was saying mine was fine even though it wasn't)
hope this helps someone somewhere.
