Hi all. I manage to update an old site even to v5 . The site is working ok but I can not login to the Admin page. The logins just refreshing and stay there.

Any clue?

Are you still running into an issue? Usually if it’s just refreshing, you’re either losing the post data or you have a cookie issue. See if this helps: https://docs.expressionengine.com/latest/troubleshooting/general.html#submitting-a-form-has-no-effect-and-the-page-simply-reloads

If it’s not a rewrite losing the post, look at your headers- see if it’s trying to set a cookie and can’t.

You might even ftp in and set an override so the cp using a session id and not cookies- see if that gets you in:

https://docs.expressionengine.com/latest/general/system-configuration-overrides.html#cp_session_type

$config['cp_session_type'] = 's';

Thanks Robin, that did the trick. I have just read it and fixed it.
