Hi,
We've installed several successful Drupal sites on other servers, but having a difficult couple of days with a new install. After the install is complete, and we click on the link to create the first admin user/pass, everything seems to be going ok. When we click to save the new user/pass, we expect to see the message to check our email for user/pass. Instead, we get the standard login screen.
We get the actual email, and when we click the email and get the page with the "login" button, clicking it results in the "Access Denied" page.
When trying to log in via the usual user/pass combo, we go back to the normal first page with the username & password fields still there. The watchdog table seems to indicate we logged in correctly.
We've reinstalled Drupal several times, and cleaned out the database/reinstalled. I've checked the forums, but the issues that seem related are about Drupal 4.x.
Here's our setup, what are we missing?
Drupal 5.3 MySQL 5.0 PHP 5.2.5 Apache2.2 Windows2003 Server
Thanks in advance
Joe
First two things to check are that your database user has the correct permissions. Second thing i would do is clear all my cookies related to that site and try again as well as trying from different computers/browsers.

Thanks for the reply.
It looks like the permissions are set correctly and I've cleared my browser cache and switched machines.
Something I noticed while checking the database that the sessions table has a record for uid=1, but when I compared this to another database, I noticed that sid does not have a value.
Could this be a symptom of not being able to log in ... or a symptom of the actual problem?

You could try truncating the systems table.
