Another strange upgrade/log in issue

I migrated my Drupal site to a clean new box - installed apache, PHP, etc., replicated my db, changed Drupal's settings.php to point to the right db, and upgraded 6.6->6.10 just fine (so I thought), but after logging out of the site, I can't log back in under any user account. I did check other forum posts for any clues and googled for other similar problems, but haven't gotten anywhere.

When I enter the user name and password into the login fields and submit, the fields reset to be blank again.

The public areas of the site are fine, the theme works, images display fine, etc so I know the connection to the db is fine and the site is working otherwise. SSL is enabled and gives me the right cert, and CleanURLs is not installed. I'm an apache newbie, but I'm pretty sure I configured the VirtualHost directives correctly.

I've tried multiple browsers so I know it's not a browser issue. I also know that I'm not silently being logged in because I can't access pages that an authorized user would be able to.

I've checked the logs that I can (drupal-access_log and drupal-error_log) and I don't see any errors there but I'm not sure where else to check. I am an SQL n00b so, while I have access to the database, I'm not sure what to look for or change.

CentOS 5
Apache 2.2
Drupal 6.10
mySQL 5

any tips/links for upgrading from 5.16 to 6.10?

I am moving a client's site that uses about 12 version 5 modules to D6.10. All of the modules have a version for 6.

Any tips, links, instructions for easiest migration/upgrade?

Many thanks.

Cannot login after upgrading site, please help

Hi everyone, I have just upgraded from 6.9 to 6.10 but I am not able to login to the site after upgrading. The login box has dissappeared from its position but everything looks entact on the site. I just need to login and need your help as much as you know the functioning of drupal. I am just desperate as this is my first drupal base CMS website.
When I had finished upgrading, I also realised that I could not switch themes before the site's login box went missing.
What can I do to login?

Best practice to prepare for D6->D7 upgrade?

Building some new D6 sites. Any tips on best practice to prepare for D7?

I'm going to minimize use of add on modules but will of course be drawn, moth to the flame, to CCK, Views, etc.

I'm also particularly concerned about how to implement images in D6 to make the transition to D7 successful.

- CCK - what trouble am I going to get in with a D7 upgrade?
- Views - same...
- Images - how best to implement given new image support in D7 core?

Cannot access and module admin (white screen) following Ubercart module addition

Hello Drupal World,

I'm 10 days into Drupal and have to say am shocked with myself as to why I haven't used it until now. An amaizing piece of work :)

Having built my first site I have just added the latest Ubercart module and I can now no longer access any module information. I just get a white screen.

Memory limit is set to 128MB (this is also the server limit).

All other parts of my site are accessible .. it's only the module admin. I cannot complete my set up or administer any of the modules in my site.

Cannot login as admin after upgrade

I just upgraded my site to Drupal 6.10, and upgraded some modules at the same time. Now, after I hit the 'login' button, I get a 403 access denied error. However, the login screen is accessible and the site looks intact. I also cannot get do the database update. Even going into settings.php and changing 'false' to 'true' to get around the lack of admin access, I am able to begin the update.php process but when I hit the 'update' button it loops back to the starting screen. This could be because I wasn't able to set site to maintenance mode? Any help much appreciated!
