Login to backend doesn't work after installation

[riker09]

After a fresh install of Magento 2.0.0.0-dev41 (checked out via git clone https://github.com/magento/magento2.git .) I am unable to log into the backend with Firefox 18.0.2. Chromium works fine, so does Opera or Midori. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.

Each time I try to login another row is added to the database table core_session. So it looks like the session is never started, maybe this is a duplicate of #105 ?

I just found out that when in private mode I can login with Firefox! Maybe the browser just needs a restart.

I had to clear my cookies for the host I installed Magento2 to (http://magento2.localhost) to get it working. I'm not sure if this is a bug or just an annoyance. Somebody with more experience may please close this issues.

Experiencing the same problem, however clearing cookies or attempting to log in with incognito mode on my installation does not resolve the issue. Attempted installation of 2.0.0.0-dev42 on two different servers to test.

@chris7519 can you let us know which PHP version are you using? Do you get any errors in logs or on screen?

[chrissm79]

I'm using PHP 5.4.11 on one server and 5.4.10 on the other. No errors on the screen, just a 404 redirect (looks like the session gets set though).

I did find a workaround for this.

Hi,

I think installed with localhost so not working login in back end.

Installation with 127.0.0.1 for localhost

Is this issue still reproducible? The code has been updated to version 2.0.0.0-dev.45 and a couple Firefox versions changed since then. Could you confirm the issue is gone or still valid for you?

This issues was the first issue that was ever reported, what almost a year
ago? What happened to Magento? Whoever is in charge of the development
lifecycle needs to step up or stand down and let someone else do the job.
Been with Magento for years but now I think I see where this is headed and
I'm about to jump ship and swim for the shore.
