   I don't know what I really changed, or perhaps it was just the upgrade to 2.8 ...
   I can't access to the wp-admin page.

   In the index of my blog, the link appears as if I'm logged in (link is "administrate" and not "log in"), but when I follow the link (example.com/blog/wp-admin) I'm redirected to the "wp-login" page.

   I tried to debug, and found a weird situation :
   the "wp_validate_auth_cookie" function is called 3 times before redirecting to login.

   1. 1st call, with "auth" cookies scheme, and wp_validate_auth_cookie return false (not "authorized")
   2. 2nd call, with "logged_in" cookie, and wp_validate_auth_cookie return my user_id (=1 : I'm admin)
   3. 3rd call, like the first one, scheme "auth", return false.

   I push my debugging, I found that the function "get_currentuserinfo" call wp_validate_auth_cookie first without argument (so 'auth' scheme, then with the 'logged_in' cookie and scheme 'logged_in' )
   I guessed that "get_currentuserinfo" is called by defaut very early in Wordpress (in wp-setting for example)

   Then 'wp-admin/admin.php' (the main admin script) call again the wp_validate_auth_cookie and redirect to wp-login when not authorized...

   Hi,

   - Disable all plugins from database
   - Change the theme to default

   If all these does not work then redo the upgrade and manually upgrade the wordpress..

   Thanks,

   Shane G.

   I had only 2 plugins : akismet and a "google analytic" plugin (not really realated to login)
   I change the wp_option->active_plugins to an empty string, the blog continued to run but I continued to be rejected from wp-admin ...

   I already tried to overwrite all files by the wordpress-2.8 official files, still no success.

   Actually, the only difference will a standart install, is that I tried to have "domain cookies". I put these 2 lines in my wp-config.php files since a long time, and it worked I think since wordpress 2.6 or about (+/- 0.1).
   

   define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '/' );
   define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.2diabolos.com');

   I just tried without these lines, it works !
   So now, I don't have anymore the "domain cookies"...
   Someone have such a functionality working ?

   By the way : I'm not sure about the need of "Set up secret keys in WordPress 2.6+" ( http://wordpress.org/support/topic/170987?replies=3 )

   This is still needed in 2.8 ?
