I don't know PHP very well, but from what I'm reading, PHP keeps its session data (i.e. cookies) in the directory session_save_path(). It looks like the files in session_save_path() are getting clobbered. Thanks, HostRocket.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

No. What seems to be going on is that the "Buffistas Home" link is pointing to "buffistas.org", while the session cookie in your browser was set by "www.buffistas.org" (and is only sent back to that site). If I hit the "Buffistas Home" link I get logged out, but if I type www.buffistas.org by hand it works.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ah-ha! I thought it was just me. Considering I just sent a half-finished email, it seemed entirely possible I had logged myself out.

Up with the sun
I had the same problem this a.m.
BTW, I didn't know before that in guest mode you can't see user profiles. It's a nice feature.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Paul, what was the $SERVER_NAME in the php_info that I sent you?
Once again -- no code has changed. It's the server config that's bouncing around.

I don't know, ita. I don't have it here at work.

Just logged in again with no trouble.

Give me a yell when you get to it, could you?
The host name shouldn't be hardcoded anywhere, so once you're logged in to buffistas.org, everything should work properly.
I'm just pissed they keep changing things (like whatever broke the e-mail) and being so blasé or dismissive about it.

I'm not getting Read New or Message Center links in Bureau. But they appear in this thread, so I'm off to check again and see if it was a momentary thing.
ETA:
Huh, they're back. But message center did show my own post as being a new one, so in someway it didn't notice me there or something.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was just logged out, too. Hitting the back button got me back in.
For some reason, all the "read new" "message center" etc links are going to buffistas.org instead of www.buffistas.org today.
