Install goes okay until it says, you are the first user etc ... click below to log in. Then the page refreshes when you try to log in. The admin user is created in the database.

register_globals is on - other settings, like magic_quotes are all correct.

I notice that the querystring in the URL bar is empty after the question mark. Any offers for a solution?

How can we help if you don't provide us the proper information? What Drupal version are you using? What SQL database? What PHP version? What webserver software?

Please excuse my english, I am german.
If've the same problem:
---
Note that the value of PHP's configuration option magic_quotes_gpc is incorrect. It should be set to '0' for Drupal to work properly. Either configure your webserver to support .htaccess files so Drupal's .htaccess file can set it to the proper value, or edit your php.ini file directly. This message will automatically dissapear when the problem has been fixed.

I've reinstalled Drupal from a new tarball and it now works fine.

This is strange because I've used the old files on two other installations and they both worked first time.

By the way - Drupal is by far and away the best portal/cms out there.
