I'm logging in wrong?

[maggie]

I set up a test forum for 3.5, wanted to see what it's about before upgrading live, but now I'm having a problem.
Everything ran smooth until it was time to log in at the end of install, and it's not letting me stay logged in. It accepts the name and password (and I show up in the database), but that's as far as I'm getting.
Where do I need to look to fix this?

Sounds like your cookie domain settings are not correctly set. This is Steve's post in a previous thread,

Upload the tools.php script in the 'do_not_upload' folder of the vB zip file to your Admin CP directory. Use this to reset the cookie domain and path back to the defaults. And then leave your cookie domain and path at the default settings. There is no reason to change these. If you need to specify a unique cookie, use the cookie prefix setting in config.php instead.
