Hi all,

I was trying to set the login page to a custom one.  I changed the page but when it tries to load I get the following in firefox:

"Redirect Loop

Redirection limit for this URL exceeded.  Unable to load the requested page.  This may be caused by cookies that are blocked."

I now don't know how to log back in to change this.  Any clues as to how i can change this back or solve the problem would be very welcome. 

Simon

PS its nothing to do with cookies,

If anyone else stumbles upon this, here's what you do:

If you have direct access to you db you only need to reset (set to null) the field LoginTab on the portals table. The option outlined earlier (adding ctl=login to the url) will not work on newer versions (it used to  work on dnn2.1.2). Allowing this option would open a possible security door on a site that had a customized login control that needed to do something different so this is disabled by default.

The site needs to be restarted because the information is cached ( for performance ).  If you don't have access to this functionality through a control panel, you can force a restart by editing the web.config file ( even just opening and resaving will force a "change" ).
