   WordPresss installed sucessfully on Vista RTM, II7, PHP5, MySQL5.

   can't login to administration, it always redirects me to the login page, but no failure messages.

   please advise

   Sounds like a cookie/session problem.

   What is the url of your blog? i.e http://localhost/

   What browsers have you tried?

   IIS is always problematic. Switch to Apache instead.

   I suspect that IIS isn't your problem, but your configuration of PHP. I'd suggest that you download 2.0.6 RC1 and see if your problem goes away:

   The download is here:
   http://wordpress.org/beta/wordpress-2.0.6-RC1.zip

   Your issue is related to Ticket 3215, which I've described in my 2.0.6 Feature List ( http://www.thecodecave.com/article297 ) :

   "Ticket #3215 - "Login & Update functions everything is broken" - PHP can talk to the server in different languages. On servers using the “Fast CGI” language, an error 500 was received when reaching administration pages. The code was rewritten to have special handling for Fast CGI servers."

   I installed WordPress-2.0.6-RC1, the PROBLEM remains, when I try to log-in on the administration page, I then redirected to the same page again and the address has "http://localhost/blog/wp-login.php?redirect_to=%2Fblog%2Fwp-admin%2Findex.php"

   Any Clues?!

   ... you didn't answer the cookie question. :)

   onsi, I've seen some issues with using localhost as the url (not just a wordpress issue).

   Try a different domain, i.e. your ip address or computer name.

    Microsoft's new network stack has had a number of different problems, most of them caused by the rest of the world not being completely up-to-date with the latest standards (backwards compatibility, who needs it!). This problem is no exception.

    Jeez those Redmond guys have got some cheek. :)

    We usually suggest using localhost.localdomain over on the WPMu forums. You do have to add it into your HOSTS file though.
