You’ve tried everything, but have you tried emptying your browser cache and deleting all WP-related cookies?

Yep, that’s why I’m utterly confused.
Not only have I cleared out all cookies (not even just the WP ones, but every one) but I get the same results on a clean machine that I haven’t logged on to my WP admin from before.
I have the SAME problem man. It’s so weird, because I have two wp installations, and one of them works, one of them does exactly what you have described, I’ve tried restarting the server adn clearing the cookies, etc, you know what I think it is though, I think its something with teh db (and no I Don’t mean the site address, Ive created that) I think something else is goin on, I’m just gonna reinstall wp and put my customizations back on.
I delted my db and reinstalled using the exact same files (did not delte them) and when I ran install.php again poof it works

I’ve had this exact same problem, and verified that it occurs seemingly independent of any manual db changes and is definitely NOT a browser-issue.

I’ve been looking at this more, and there’s something very weird that I’ve noticed.
When I log in with the correct username/password, it just flings me back to the login screen.
If I log in with an incorrect password, then it reports this on the log-in screen.
So I figure I’m logging in correctly, but then something in the code is barfed and doesn’t recognise the cookie, so it just hoys me straight back to the log-in screen, even though the log-in was correct.
Any ideas?
I’ll flag it to the hackers list.
Where is your installation of WP located?
What’s the “siteurl” setting? What’s the “home” setting?

Thanks idban, I’ve tried that $cookiehash fix, and on mine it hasn’t worked.
Allusion, the siteurl setting is http://www.site.co.uk/wordpress and the home (assuming you mean where I’m publishing to) is in a different directory. However, I’m only trying to log in through the /wordpress directory, rather than via the login link on the published page.
