   I can reach my wp-login.php just fine, but when I input my username and password and hit Log In it brings me to a blank white screen and does nothing.

   Browser shows that it hasn't navigated anywhere, still on the wp-login.php page. Problems persists across all major internet browsers.

   Also, I've tried everything on the page with no success.

   Started doing this maybe a month ago and I just haven't taken the time to get it working and haven't needed it since then. I was updated to the latest version when this started, though I'm not sure if any updates have been released since then, so I'm not 100% sure which version I'm using.

   Any ideas?

   1st thing to try:
   ftp to site or use host's file manager to rename the /plugins folder
   this will deactivate all plugins and let you log in if one is borked
   either way, just rename the /plugins folder back to normal so you can activate plugins

   2nd thing to try:
   

   1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
   If your line shows 32M try 64M:
   memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
   
   2. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
   php_value memory_limit 128M
   
   3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
   Increasing memory allocated to PHP
   define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');

   if either doesn't work - check your error logs for a clue

   Thanks for the reply.

   I had already tried disabling the plugins as mention on the "Login Trouble" page in the Codex, and that didn't work...

   I tried your 2nd idea and there was no effect... :(

   Where might I find my WordPress error logs?

   I've been trying to get an error log to generate with no success. Can anybody offer any advice?
