Login problems after moving to new domain
I moved my forum to a new domain and had the same problem (white screen) as mentioned in the other post. In the end I ended up creating a fresh install of vanilla, fresh installs of the add-ons and custom mods (Luckily I always back things up on my HD). Then Exported each LUM_ from the database and imported them into the new database. Moved the discussions back into the proper categories and it looks great.
Unfortunately for some of the members their usernames and passwords won’t log them in. And those members are not even able to sign in creating a new user name (wrong user name or password). It was working fine for myself even though some of the members were telling me it wasn’t working, then suddenly it happened to me as well. I logged out, then tried to log back in and saw it for myself. Requesting a password change doesn’t even cure the problem.
So… I deleted Lum_user from the database and re-imported the file again. Poof, the problem (for me anyhow seems to have been cured for now). I’m not sure how many members are effected and I’ll have to wait to hear if they get in or not. Anyhow I’m certain some action caused the problem such as a new member joining or something, and I’m 99% sure it will happen again.
The only thing I can think of is that the database Lum files that I copied were from version 1.1.4 and the fresh install on the new domain is 1.1.5. Maybe Lum_user is somehow different in .5 than in .4? Does anyone know what might be causing this problem? Thanks in advance.
