Login problem perhaps a bug (I think)?

    OK, I think I found out what’s causing my login difficulties. Caused me a whole day experementing 🙂 I went through everything step by step, and this is what happens:
    From the moment I use the option of having my blog and wordpressfiles in different folders I can’t login anymore. I’m keeping my blog and wordpress folders side by side like 2fargon explained here.
    In my case that’s http://www.spoenk.nl/weblog and http://www.spoenk.nl/wordpress. Also I made all the changes in the options menu to seperate wp and content (the URL and URI), and I changed require(‘.wp-blog-header.php’); into require(‘../wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’); and moved the index.php to the blogdirectory.
    And from now on I get this message: http://www.spoenk.nl/wordpress/wp-login.php?redirect_to=%2Fwordpress%2Fwp-admin%2F
    and can’t login anymore. I found out that when I change ‘home’ in the database back to http://www.spoenk.nl/wordpress, the problem is solved. So somewhere during the logincheck the path to the wordpressfiles is lost. Just during this proces, because otherwise the site works OK with the two folders side by side. Not the login though…

    My solution:

    My hosting ( with cpanel ) changes any subdomain to a directory. Example:

    myBlog.myDomain.com/

    redirects to

    myDomain.com/myBlog/

    So the configuration value introduced automatically by the instaler was not valid. The controller sent me to a php file in a wrong directory to login.

    Everything worked OK after changing the option of “siteurl” in the BBDD. Clue, the table [optional_prefix]options.

    I hope it works.
