WordPress MU

Creating a fresh Wordpress MU 2.6.1 install and running into problems when I first try to login.

The installation itself seemed to go OK and when I browse to my main page I get the stock "This is a WordPress Mu powered site" page with links to Log in, create a new blog, etc.

Problem, though, is that when I try to actually Log in, I just end up in a continuous loop.

I click that link and end up at http://anibee/wp-login.php. When I enter my authentication info and hit Log in, though, I'm redirected back to:

http://anibee/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fanibee%2Fwp-admin%2F

Login again, and returned to the same http://anibee/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fanibee%2Fwp-admin%2F page.

I noticed that no cookies are being set, either, when I try to login. And I don't see any errors in my access or error logs.

I also just dropped and recreated my database, and deleted and replaced all the WP Mu files. Still the same problem.

You see there no .com in your links... ?

That's correct. This is a local, test machine.

Andrea's pointing out that you need to have a correctly formed domain for mu to work. At least set it up as anibee.tld or something along those lines.

Ah, gotcha. I didn't realize that. Let me give that a go.

Thanks, andrea_r and tdjcbe. That was the problem.
