"Domain Not Found" on login

I'm gettting an error on my installation of Vanilla.

In FF, I get an Alert that says:
[my.domain.com] could not be found. Please check the name and try again.

where my.domain.com is my actual URL. In IE I get the typical "The page cannot be displayed" message.

In FF, if I hit OK on the alert and then press PROCEED again I'm logged in and everything is fine. In IE, I have to hit BACK first, and then PROCEED and I'm logged in correctly.

Anybody have any ideas why this is or how to fix it?

    What version of PHP are you using? What type of server are you on? (apache?) Can we have a login to test with on your version of vanilla? You can whisper your username/pass on there to me if you want.

    sounds like the result of an incorrect Web-path to Vanilla. If you placed Vanilla in my.domain.com/vanilla/ the web-path should match to suit. It sounds like you're either falling short or going too far with where-ever your're being redirected to after logging in.

    Lech, I haven't checked yet, but I think you're right. We had a minor dns change over the weekend and I think that's what is causing problems. Thanks!!

    The problem was in my httpd.conf file - the ServerName value within this file was set to my old domain, which changed over the weekend -- which seems to have been screwing up server redirects. Sorry for wasting space and time on this board -- wonderful program btw!
