Login problems on mobile.pistonheads?

[jamieboy]

As above, I can't log in to mobile.PH from my iPhone.

It worked yesterday, not today. I can still log in to other sites, including the full version of PH. I've also tried a reset of my phone, just in case, but it's still the same.

I saw another thread about being unable to connect to mobile.PH, but this seems like a slightly different problem. Or a different symptom, anyway.

What mobile network are you on? What is the error message it is giving you?

I've got the same on Orange, no error, just returns to login page when you enter the correct login details.

O2 here, but otherwise exactly as Mark describes.

I'm also having this problem, can't log in from iPhone. Very annoying

[jamieboy]

It's working for me now.

I checked at lunchtime and it still wasn't working, then I logged into mobile.PH on my desktop and then after that I was able to log in on my iPhone.

Doubt if that helps anyone diagnose anything, but there you go.

I accidently logged out on iPhone the other day (meant to "click" my stuff) no problem logging back in.

I'm logged back in now

What is happening when you try to logon as I have no problems on my iPhone. What are your settings for Safari (Settings -> Safari)?

I have mine setup as the following:

Search Engine - Google
AutoFill - Off
Fraud Warning - On
JavaScript - On
Plug-ins - On
Block Pop-ups - On
Accept Cookies - From visited

My settings are exactly the same as that. When I log in, it just returns me to the login page (with the login name and password fields empty).

Bit bizarre, has to be a cookie issue as that is the only thing that will record you logging in or not. You haven't got a full iPod or something else blocking it?

[jamieboy]

As I said, it's working for me now after logging in to mobile.ph on a desktop - my phone settings are all as above, and I didn't change them before it broke / before it worked again.

Odd that a few of us have had exactly the same issue around the same time.

What network are you all on? Orange or O2?

[jamieboy]

I'm on O2, but it was happening connected via wireless too - the same wireless network as the desktop I used just before it started working.

[miniman]

O2 network, disk isn't full.

Cracked it.

If I use the shortcut on my home screen, it goes direct to "My Stuff" and then redirects me to log in. This is where it gets stuck in a loop.

If I click on "Members" and then log in from there, it works fine.

Perhaps the redirect after login mechanism is borked.
