Elgg 1.8.15 causing login errors

I have been facing login issues ever since I upgraded to 1.8.15. I get the following messages when I try to login:

1. Sorry, logging in from a different domain is not permitted. Please try again.

2. At times it will try to login and redirect to a home page without loggin in and no error messages.

3. It shall give incorrect username/password message

If I go to activity page and do a login, it lets me in.

None of these issues happen on me development server but they happen on production server. 

Any pointers? 

I also saw this message in firebug:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://domain.com/es/ajax/view/js/languages?language=en. Origin http://www.domain.com is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin

  • I do not think this is browser specific or user specific. If it fails for one it should fail for all.

    Can she login in from activity page? That was primarily my issue.

    I also noticed that if I keep my php.ini file in the elgg folder, I get the same issue. Changes in my .htaccess file was not working so I had put it in the ini so that it could overwrite default.

    This new change in 18.15 is causing more headaches than cures.

     

  • @gluck: I don't know what exaxtly you added. But I'm wondering why it should work when adding it to the php.ini file (and having a php.ini file with these additions in the Elgg root folder). The Rewrite code surely belongs in Elgg's .htaccess file and nowhere else. If it does not work when adding it to the .htaccess it might be due to adding it at the wrong place within it.

    If the login only fails on specific pages within your site, I would rather guess it's a problem caused by a 3rd party plugin.
