Your browser does not accept cookies
« on: August 16, 2007, 04:41:50 PM »
Hello all.

First let me say, I have combed the forums and google for a solution to this issue and none resolved or fit the issue. I know the browsers in IE and firefox in testing accept all cookies, there is not a firewall in place (hardware firewall only completely open to LAN traffic) and all folder permissions are everyone full control for roundcube. OK, enough disclaimer, down to the problem

2003 server
IIS6
latest Roundcube
PHP 5.2.3
MySQL 5.0.37
latest PEAR
Mercury/32 4.51 located on different server on the same network
http://roundcube.williams2000.com (test lab)

I can get the login page just fine. However, regardless of what is inputted, I get the error "Your browser does not accept cookies". There is no log created, no temp files created and there is not an atttempt to connect to mercury/32

Any assistance is greatly appreciated as I want to compare Roundcube to my Horde/IMP installation which operates flawlessly.

HI

I think you simply deactivated cookies on php level.

Take a look in your php.ini file. There should be something like
Code: [Select]
; Whether to use cookies.
session.use_cookies = 1

but in your case its probably like
Code: [Select]
session.use_cookies = 0
Simple change this and restart IIS

Check the above post. It may make the difference to your setup.

However if you are still having problems try deleting all your cookies, temporary files and history. I had a similar problem and this solved it. I wouldn't have noticed on Firefox as this is done automatically for me, but on IE6 I needed to do this manually to get the webmail to work.

THANKS FOR THE REPLIES. My faith is restored.

I turned off cookies in php.ini, restarted IIS and even rebooted the server to cover all bases. I cleared my cookies from both test browsers and even tested offsite and received the same results. It is still not producing and log files, any temp files or any errors other than "Your browser does not accept cookies" with no attempt to connect to the IMAP server.

I have EXACTLY the same problem. The interesting thing to note is that roundcube previously worked. I can't figure out why it started some day to tell me I was refusing cookies, whatever computer and browser and login and password I would use, even if I DO accept cookies.
Well, I won't describe the whole thing again, this has already been well described above.

Here's my config, for reference :

Ubuntu 7.04 Server (kernel 2.6.21.5)
Apache 2.2.3
Roundcube SVN rev 791
PHP 5.2.1
MySQL 5.0.38
