Instead of trying to log in at domainname.com/wp-admin, I tried <a href="http://www.domainname.com/wp-admin." rel="nofollow">www.domainname.com/wp-admin.</a></p> <p>Voila! My password worked and Remember Me seems to work as well. I just wish I'd thought of it about three hours ago. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-977940 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 16:52:53 +0000 thomasabowden 977940@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm having this problem.

Then try and re-add it. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-936201 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 22:23:23 +0000 iridiax 936201@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Here are a few suggestions that may help:</p> <ul> <li>wp-config.php needs updating with both 2.6 and 2.7 because new cookie keys have been added. <strong>Note: Back up your wp-config.php first.</strong> Transfer your info (<em>not</em> the whole code) from your old wp-config.php file into the new one and generate and add the keys. See: <p><a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php</a></li> <li>Delete cookies, empty browser cache, and quit and restart the browser. Sometimes this can clear odd login issues.</li> <li>Try a different browser or check if a browser update is available.</li> <li>If you are using Safari, open the preferences and make sure that Autofill user names and passwords is selected.</li> <li>Temporarily disable all plugins and see if the problem goes away. If it does, then a plugin is at fault.</li> </ul> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-936177 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 21:38:14 +0000 steveportigal 936177@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I just tried the trailing / and it didn't work. I didn't have this problem until last week when we went from 2.1 to 2.7. I'm using Firefox 3.0.5 </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-923353 Sat, 13 Dec 2008 06:42:14 +0000 bill127300 923353@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I just fixed it myself. I just added a / at the end of the path for the wp-admin link. It was /wp-admin and making it /wp-admin/ fixed the problem. No idea why, but it did. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-923352 Sat, 13 Dec 2008 06:39:43 +0000 bill127300 923352@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Would love to see an answer to this. I have the same problem. It does remember me right from the page as I can click on edit under a post without a problem. But if I click on Site Admin I have to login in all over. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/197444#post-884931 Mon, 27 Oct 2008 02:20:22 +0000 cableboy 884931@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I have the same problem.

The wp-admin, wp-content and wp-includes files need to be in the public_html directory DIRECTLY...they were in the public_html/wordpress/ file. But it works! Yeah! Thanks for your help! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884244 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 01:05:41 +0000 musnake 884244@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hey Mary, last post, promise...</p> <p>Your file manager on your server, have you refreshed the view? Is it showing you the latest view?</p> <p>If it's not in there, you may be ftp'ing all those files some place else! Your ftp program is not complaining? It's happily putting those files where if not where you think it is?</p> <p>As far as the error you have, it appears to be all about this one file.<br /> Sometimes, because of 'group' issues, you have to delete files from your hosting account's file manager, and ftp the new files. Sometimes, the host server won't let the ftp overwrite files and it will fail silently! That's why it's often best to manually delete the destination files before pushing new ones, especially since (unless you look beforehand) you never know when the developers stop using an old file and delete it from the zip -but it's still on your host...</p> <p>Worse comes to worse, risk group issues and upload that damn file manually in your server filemanager...</p> <p>G'Night! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884237 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 00:50:59 +0000 marylutz 884237@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I didn't change any code. I put the one perm back to the way it was and tried moving just the compat.php file over to the public_html/wp-includes file. When I look at my file manager on my server in the public_html/ file, wp-includes does not appear in there anywhere. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884218 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 00:09:35 +0000 musnake 884218@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Anyway, I have to get off of this PC.</p> <p>Seeing as this is a new install, every time you attempt to install and have to start over, there is usually cleanup involved. Hopefully your install was aborted before any of that. It probably was.</p> <p>Things to search for if I'm wrong: deleting wp-config.php, deleting .htaccess on install, dropping tables etc.</p> <p>Although really, if you deleted all the files on the server, then ftp'd the new ones over, and dumped your old wp-config.php file where it's supposed to be you should be good to go -if you didn't delete all the tables in the database...and if you did, you'd either have a head start in the install or a little cleanup to do...</p> <p>I have to go.</p> <p>Cheers! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884216 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 00:03:56 +0000 musnake 884216@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>What main wordpress directory? /public_html/ ?</p> <p>No, don't change the permissions on that particular directory! Your host probably has that protected anyway... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884215 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 00:00:32 +0000 musnake 884215@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hey Mary,</p> <p>No, don't change any code!</p> <p>Make sure that the file that you're ftp'ing over is that missing compat.php file.</p> <p>It needs to be put into the right folder.<br /> It needs to be in: /public_html/wp-includes/</p> <p>so you'll end up with: /public_html/wp-includes/compat.php</p> <p>Ok? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212831#post-884212 Sat, 25 Oct 2008 23:57:14 +0000 marylutz 884212@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>@musnake</p> <p>What I've done so far with no luck:</p> <p>All my perms were set to 0644 except for the main wordpress directory so I changed that one.</p> <p>I cleared my cookies and my browser cache, closed and reopened my browser.</p> <p>My guess is it's that file on line 203.
