Same problem with one of my clients today;

the ?ctl=Login just refreshes the home page.

I've even made sure the LoginTabId is NULL in Portals table.

Anbody know how to get out of this situation?

Is there a script someone can provide to add a login module to the home page via SQL to get us out of this?
