Difficulty logging in

Hi Smiley Happy

I am having issues when I try to log into the forums. On one computer I can't get in at all, and on the other computer I can't get in using internet explorer but I can using google Chrome. I seem to get bounced between the SANE website and the mifa website. That is, I go to log in on the SANE website, get redirected to mifa, log in there, get redirected back to SANE and then it asks me to login and I get redirected back to mifa...and around and around I go. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be? Thank you Smiley Happy

Happened to me a few times - clear your cache and try again.

Hi @Phoenix_Rising,

I'm no IT wizz, but can I ask on what site did you register? I don't know if this has something to do with it. But I'm just trying to gather info, so I can pass it on to our IT person.

Re: Difficulty logging in

@CherryBomb I originally registered on the SANE site.

@Phoenix_Rising thanks, I've just sent off an email to our IT person. He'll hopefully check it out on Monday. Smiley Happy

Hi @Phoenix_Rising,

How was your weekend?

I've heard back from our IT whiz, and here's what they wrote:

 
"whatā€™s happening is that the cookie is redirecting them to MIFA, but the [Forums] system is redirecting them back to the SANE version of the service.
 
I can see on the forum thread that another member advised them to ā€œclear their cacheā€ but what they really need to do is ā€œclear their cookiesā€.
 
The method for doing this varies from browser to browser so if the member is able to, they need to just google:
 
Clear cookies in Chrome
 
Clear cookies in Internet Explorer
 
Which should give them instructions on how to do that. If they arenā€™t able to do that, weā€™ll need to find out the browser name and version they are using so we can find the appropriate instructions for them."
 
@Phoenix_Rising, let me know how you go with that, and if you have any probs. 
 
Hope it works!
