Redirect loop in categories back office with Prestashop 1.5.3.1

[mr_schwensen]

Hello, I've installed Prestashop 1.5.3.1 on a clean system without any errors (automatic installation). Everything works fine except the categories menu in the back office. If i click on it, there will be a too many redirects error. The database was empty before the installation. At this time I've made no changes after the installation (no modules added, no minor changes etc.) In the ps_category table are just the root and the home entry which will be created with the standard installation.

My system config:

Alesandro,

 

A good idea would be to error log on your store, or to ask your hosting provider to do this.

Hi Guys, I've fixed the issue on my own. The standard installation without demo products creates two category entries in the ps_category table. The both rows have the id 1 and 11. I've updated the second record from 11 to 2 for all category tables and now everything works fine.
