RT 5.0.4 upgrade - Can't log in now - Login page just refreshesh

Is anyone experiencing this? I just upgraded from 5.0.2 to 5.0.4, running on nginx and now my login page just cycles. I enter a user name and password & it just takes me back to the login page. I’ve cleared the mason cache but that doesn’t look like it’s helped. Any help?

I turned on debugging in my RT_SiteConfig.pm. I’m getting Successful login for XXX, but the login page simply doesn’t disappear. It just cycles back to the Login page. This didn’t happen in test and now I’ve got production data being added via email. Any ideas? I know this has to be something basic, I just can’t think of what it is.

RT 5.0.4 changes the default setting for the $WebSecureCookies to on. This is most likely the issue based on what you described. You can set it back to the previous default in your RT_SiteConfig.pm file or via the web configuration UI in System Configuration.

Good to hear that fixed it.

We mentioned it on the beta announcement, but missed it in the actual release post yesterday. I have updated that post to make it easier to find. It’s also noted in the upgrading notes and now this post has some additional details on the symptoms. That should make this update more discoverable now from a few different places.
