Can't log in to any of my adminsites anymore

Hello,

I've succesfully set up several sites on one engine (3.3-2) using Virtual Host Setup. It worked fine until yesterday. Suddenly I can't log in to any of my adminsites (which use different databases!).

I don't get an error (like when using the wrong uid/pwd), it just doesn't do anything...
I haven't changed the passwords or something and the databases are OK.

Does anyone know what can be causing this? It's real annoying because all of my sites are useless now!

Thank you for your time,

Maarten

The most obvious guess will be that you have dissabled cookies in your browser. If you have not change anything on the server or on your client, this sounds very wierd

I have enabled all cookies. Tried another PC with all cookies enabled: Same problem. I just did a fresh new install on my server: Same problem.

I guess (but am not sure) the trouble started after I've started using Virtual Host Setup. Unfortunately I don't know much about Apache. Could this have anything to do with it? I've removed the '.htaccess. from my Documentroot (but it doesn't work either when I put it back).

Here's the snippet of httpd.conf regarding my admin interface:

<VirtualHost *>
<Directory /srv/cms/htdocs>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !(^/design|^/var/.*/storage|^/var/storage|^/extension/.*/design|^/kernel/setup/packages).*\.(gif|css|jpg|png|jar|js|ico|pdf|swf)$ /srv/cms/htdocs/index.php

DocumentRoot /srv/cms/htdocs
ServerName admin.[my-domain].com
</VirtualHost>

I hope anyone can help.

The problem is getting weirder every day. Suddenly I was able to log in for 2 days.

The first thing I did, was create another user in all my sites. I logged in fine earlier this evening.

Now, all of a sudden, I've got the very same problem! Haven't made any changes in Apache or ez Publish but I can't log in to any of my sites! Both my users fail.

Did anyone else encounter this problem??
