Unable to log in to Moodle 1.9

Unable to log in to Moodle 1.9

After migrating our moodle site (www.ibcit.dk/learningspace) to a dedicated server at our hosting service provider no one can log in.

When entering a fake username I get the apropriate error, but when I enter the right combination of username and PW I redirected to the front page.

 

Any suggestions?

Hi Dear Flemming

When you moved the site to the new server do you update the file config.php with the right paths?

And remember erase all files from moodledata/sessions/*

Hi Pavel

My config.php has these lines:

$CFG -> wwwroot   = 'http://www.ibcit.dk/learningspace'      ; $CFG -> dirroot   = '/var/www/sites/ibcit.dk/learningspace'            ; $CFG -> dataroot  = '/var/www/sites/ibcit.dk/learningspace/uploaddata' ; $CFG -> admin     = 'admin'   

I'm not sure where to find the sessions folder you refer to as I don't have a folder named moodledata. I tried deleting the files from uploaddata/sessions, but it made no difference.

I then added this line to config.php:                ;

$CFG->ignoresesskey = true;

But stil no luck sad

Best regards, Flemming

moodledata is the dataroot, which you've called uploaddata.  This needs to be writeable by the web server process, many folks use 766 or 777 as their permissions for it.  you'd also need to make certain there's disk space available where uploaddata is located.
