Hi there!

We have a site running for our customer that runs well. But there exists one problem with the SS Login Form:
Sometimes Login fails in Internet Explorer (any Version). I can proof that login attempts fail just in this browser from time to time.
It drives me crazy, 'cause all users as well as the admin account have this problem.

One time it works without trouble.... then if you try it minutes later, you cannot login again. At first I thought that maybe there would be a proxy or router problem, but that seems to be not the case. Apache Logfiles don't bring important things to my eyes. So there seems to be a problem inside the SS cms. I hope to get help here, for I don't want to write another external login form.

Has anyone seen similar problems with random success with login forms in SS / IE (5-8) ?

Thanks in advance!

All the trouble comes in fact from multiple PHPSESSID.

Is there a way to ensure that only the newest PHPSESSID is used?
Can we destroy the old PHPSESSID? Or the cookie?

Why do we need session_regenerate_id inside the core? (security/Member.php) It seems to cause all the trouble.

greetings,

Ok, it seems that the problem with multiple PHPSESSIDs is now solved and Login from every IE Browser is now guaranteed.

I just commented out line 113 in sapphire/security/Member.php.

112   static function session_regenerate_id() {
113      //session_regenerate_id(true);
114   }

The root of all evil has been cut through, I hope. ;-)

greetings,
