Hello everyone,

I have been using Dokuwiki successfully on several systems now, but now that I want to use it on my personal shared webspace, I am facing a strange problem: After a fresh installation using the install.php script and enabling acl, dokuwiki always tries to log me in, no matter what I do! If initially I request the front page, I will get the (translated) message that the username and or password is wrong, and then the page itself. This message will stay when I change to any other wiki page. Even stranger, when I log in and then log out, dokuwiki will display the log-in screen, which I will ignore by clicking on the wiki logo -- and, woooooosh, I am logged in again!

I checked this with Firefox and Konqueror, and also on a different machine -- same result.

The dokuwiki installation was the latest available (2006-11-06), and as I have said, it wasn't my first one. The only difference was that this time I did not manually set any permissions. Usually I set up dokuwiki on my own computers or on a web server to which I have root access. So I fine-tune all permissions. This time, as I said, it's on a shared host, so I didn't do anything with that.

Does anyone have an idea?

Best regards,

Niklas Volbers.
