I have upgraded to 3.6.3 from 3.6.1. Everything went perfectly well until I tried to log in to the ACP.

I can log into the forums fine as a user, make posts etc, but when I log into the ACP it first takes me to the "Thank you for logging in..." page, then redirects back to the login dialogue.

I suspect this is because I have moved the forums from "mydomain.co.uk" to "mydomain.com" (destroying the original installation, of course, in accordance with the license terms - the .co.uk domain now simply forwards to the .com domain and has no content).

However I have checked the config file and the database and I can't see anything that might be messing up cookies or sessions.

Any ideas?

Please upload tools.php from the 'do_not_upload' folder of your vBulletin distribution to your admincp directory. Now point your browser to tools.php.

Reset the cookie Domain and Path to the default values.

Once your problem is fixed please remove tools.php again from the server.
