When I login on Magento, it redirects me to the login screen with the url: http://www.notitieboekjes.nl/index.php/everlake/index/index/key/5cc09b2a09c7081ba3806585fce1347a/

I do not get an error message of any kind.

I've found quite some posts about this, but all are about a Local Server. I have a clean magento (1.8.1.0) install on a VPS.

Tried everything from this post (which is about a VPS, but solutions are aimed at a local): Can't login to Magento admin

&

http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/how_to_fix_login_for_admin_on_local_install#dokuwiki__top

all to no afail.

Does anyone know a solution to this problem?

A special note: After the magento installation I had to set the Temp Directory Manually.

As said tried all options, magento isn't installed on a local machine. So I'm lost.

All help is very much appreciated. Thanks

You need to ensure you have all required PHP extensions to run Magento on your VPS:

  • php5-mcrypt
  • php5-gd
  • php5-curl
  • php5-mysql

Second, I think you're getting the login page all the time even with correct credentials. Try logging in using Google Chrome in Incognito Mode (CTRL+SHIFT+N). The reasoning here is that sometimes there are stray PHP session ID's stored on your browser that doesn't invalidate correctly. I noticed this as well with 1.8.1.0 up on non-SSL admins.

A permanent fix if the above works for you is to just get SSL and use it for your backend as well.

So I have reinstalled magento using the Downloader.

Now the problem doesn't occur anymore. Don't know why, but I'm happy.
