After installing ez publish on the server , I cannot login to the back-end.
When I enter my username and password nothing really happens.
The login page reloads and no message about the wrong pass/user is presented.
Can anyone suggest me how to solve this problem pls ? it's very important

for infomation
ez publish 4.13
the system is running on
MySQL: 5.0.22
PHP Version 5.1.6
Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat)

Fere,

Try visiting your website with /user/forgotpassword at the end. You may be able to reset the password after you receive the email the system generates.

The last comment almost makes it look like you have limited post_max_size to 0 in php.ini.
Other then that, you might need to truncate the ezsession table, experienced that this happens if it gets full (on debian based linux distro's where session gc setting is broken).

Besides the php/apache error log, the eZP one is also generally very useful; it is in the var/log dir of eZ Publish.

As a side test, you can try logging in to the front-end instead of the backend by just pointing the browser at http://site/index.php/user/login. Does it work?

it works fine now , it was a problem on value post_max_size who was inferior than the directive memory limit in the php.ini.

thanks you to all for your participation
