Topic: 500 error with login.php

Well this is weird, on completely fresh installs of both 1.2 and 1.3, logging in only works once per client session. I guess an example is best:

user goes to login.php
fills out the form
logs in and redirects fine
user logs out
user goes to login.php again
submits form, gets internal server error

this has happened to me and every friend I have asked to try it. however if you clear all of your sessions (i just close and re-open firefox) then logging in works fine again.


I don't have access to error_log, nor is my host seeming willing to give me them.. any possible ideas? :s
Thanks

ps: im on liquidweb shared hosting, in case anyone else here has used them and had the same problem

Not without seeing the error log, that error is too generic. It sounds like a server issue though.

Yup it was server related, I got my host to turn mod_security off (shouldn't that have given a 406 and not a 500 though?) and it works.
