 * I have been running the same configuration on my VPS for a year now. Debian 7
   x32 with Apache 2.2, PHP 5.6 and MySQL 5.5. Some things that have changed recently
   is using https for thea dmin area, but that was over 2 weeks ago (I know https
   should be all or nothing and is part of my migration plan). I added ipv6 to the
   server a week ago but had no issues logging in after rebooting the VPS.
 * After a DNS problem with CloudFlare last night I am now unable to log in to my
   admin area. Been searching and trying fixes all day, here is a list so far:
 * Bad credentials still return invalid credentials error
 * Flushed cookies, used different browsers
 * Changed salts in wp-config.php
 * Checked permissions of wp-config.php and whole wordpress directory
 * Change url to [http://sitename](http://sitename) (was [https://sitename](https://sitename))
   in option_table of wp_options using MySQL cli
 * Checked table integrity using mysqlcheck
 * Renamed plugins folder and restarted, no change
 * Renamed active theme, same issue when using twenty-fourteen
 * Removed .htaccess
 * Funnily enough using the WordPress Android app – which I never use – I can see
   new post drafts and updates but I cannot enter wp-admin since it redirects me
   to login
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
