PS1.7 Customer Login not working - 'Authentication Failed'


Recommended Posts

I`ve suddenly run into a problem, no one can log in to their profiles from the Front Office.  I can still log in to the Admin panel without any issues, but even this log in does not work for the FO.

Was getting the problem on PS 1.7.6.5, and even updated to 1.7.7.2 and the problem still exists.  I have already tried clearing the cache on PS & browser, Chrome and Firefox, resetting the password through Back Office.  Nothing is working...desperate for some advise...

On a slightly different point, the password reset emails aren`t being sent either; with either PHP or SMTP email (other emails go through).

 

Thanks, James

Ok, I have partially fixed my own problem.  I changed the cookie_key in Parameters.php in the app/config folder.  Then reset the password in the BO and I could log in, so must have been some issue with that file.

 

Still can`t figure out why I can`t get the password reset email to be sent.  It seems mentioned alot, but I can`t find a solution
