I have a DNN 4.5.5 installation where everything was working fine then all of a sudden the logins succeed but fail.
What I mean is I can log in as Host... or Admin... or any test user I've set up...
and the login process acts as if the person is logged in, but there is no name shown on the skin (the user object),
no host menu, no admin menu, etc.
I searched the forum, and tried everything I saw, namely
1) adding a space to the web config to restart the app
2) restarting the app with IIS (actually my hosting company does this on schedule)
3) I checked the Users table and the Host account is still there with IsSuperuser checked.
4) Deleted my cookies (very painful)
5) Even deleted my cached internet files
As I say the logins don't fail, but nothing happens.
I hate to start ALL OVER again because it took hours upon hours to get this site up and if I redo it, it could happen again!
Any ideas?
I didn't change a thing in the web config or install any modules that might have made this happen. It just 'happened' and I can't fix it.
