I have three drupal based sites on my server
http://www.guyanagateway.org.gy
http://www.sdnp.org.gy/court/dbase
and a new one
http://www.sdnp.org.gy/dnjnew

The first two work beautifully, same drupal installation, but the third one, the login screen appears every time that I try to use the 'first account' user id to log in.
This has been reported several times at http://drupal.org/node/6696 .

Hi Vidya,

I created a login and ran into the same problem on http://www.sdnp.org.gy/dnjnew/ - so you're not losing your mind. I'd suggest:

(1) browsing your watchdog table in MySQL. It should give you an idea of what is going on.
(2) Check permissions on all files. CHMOD 744 should do the trick.
(3) Check for an upper/lower case mismatch in table names anywhere: all table names for Drupal are all lower case, but I have seen some tables not be so during installs/updates.

There were some ideas expressed here (http://drupal.org/node/6696 ) which I do not know that you have tried.

However, there have been 2 critical patches since 4.6.6, as of last night, so I would suggest installing 4.6.7 instead, or 4.7.1 and seeing if the problem resolves itself. You might save some time with a clean install.
