Login loop

[leostereo]

Hi guys , I recently installed cacti using following link:
https://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/linux/c ... hel-7.html
Every thing was ok.
When browsing http:/serverip/cacti.
Login appears but can not login with admin / admin. it keeps in loop.
Any idea ?
Leandro.

check your session.save_path most likely should be /tmp

I had this issue and my session.save_path in the php.ini file was set to another location and it didn't like that and kept looping

I have also finished a new install of 1.2.11 and am having the same issue. I have confirmed the directory setting you recommended is accurate but cannot login with the default admin credentials.

I have tried commenting out the line with both // and #. Neither seems to work as I am still getting brought back to the login screen. Is there a second line or item I need to comment out?

When I run Firefox debugger I am seeing the following exceptions:

// Opera 10-11 does not throw on post-comma invalid pseudos
el.querySelectorAll("*,:x");
rbuggyQSA.push(",.*:");

SyntaxError: Element.querySelectorAll: '*,:x' is not a valid selector

// This should fail with an exception
// Gecko does not error, returns false instead
matches.call( el, "[s!='']" );
rbuggyMatches.push( "!=", pseudos );

SyntaxError: Element.matches: '[s!='']' is not a valid selector

// This should fail with an exception
// Gecko does not error, returns false instead
matches.call( el, "[s!='']" );
rbuggyMatches.push( "!=", pseudos );
});

SyntaxError: Document.querySelectorAll: 'script:last' is not a valid selector

try {
push.apply( results,
newContext.querySelectorAll( newSelector )
);

SyntaxError: Document.querySelectorAll: '.tableRowGraph:first' is not a valid selector


We have a CentOS 6 system running 0.8.8a because my coworker prefers the aggregate graphs in this version. When I login with debugger, I see no exceptions at all.

I need this fixed. The system started miraculously working yesterday morning and sent two reports last night, but hasn't sent the report for this morning and I cannot log in.

I have now created a new VM running CentOS 7 and am having the same issue on a new install.
Once the install completed, I was taking to the console page. After logging out and then attempting to log back in, I have the same issue as before.

This can happen when switching between http and https and is expected with the new secure cookies. If it happens close all your browsers, and try agin.

We don't switch between http and https. The system forwards all http traffic to https.

I have removed all https forwarding. When I attempt to login, the url changes to http://cacti-server/cacti/graph_view.php, yet the page displayed is still the login screen.

Did you guys not figure out about the $cacti_cookie_domain issue in config.php? You need to comment it out.

Please try with 1.2.12 which was released at the weekend.
