Okay this is the second time this has happened to me and last time I deleted the gallery and started over again. I tried to login this morning onto my gallery and it said "welcome ..." but then it went back to the main page but I wasn't logged in. What's up with this?
what is your cpg version?
is there any chance to see it online?(URL of your CPG)
I too am interested in this problem. I have a plain vanilla 1.4.4 installation. I find this problem only occurs with IE. I can usually use Firefox to get in. No idea why it happens. No idea how to fix it.
Do as bmossavari suggested then and post a link to your coppermine page ::)
Maybe some security setting/cookie issue in IE?

Here's my gallery

@z: you have a 1.4.3 installation. You should upgrade to 1.4.4.
When this happens, does the url change? Does the www. disappear from the url after you log in? In order to see this, you'll have to provide a non-admin test user/password.
i have the same problem with login in!!! it's utterly annoying. it goes that far: i can hardly login at all 8-) i think there's a problem in the redirecting, but i'm not sure... it's just when you login, you get a welcome message which is fine but when he redirects you again, you're not logged in at all!
and normally is hould have the latest version: http://www.absinthe-minded.org/gallery/
Delete all cookies form Tools/internet options.../temporary internet files/Delete Cookies... and try to login
You could type this in your browser after "login.php": "?clearcookies=1""
so it woulds read "http://www.yoursite.com/yourcopperminedirectory/login.php?clearcookies=1"
My webmail has that option and it is php, so I think that would work. I may even code a "clear cookies" link onto my login page. Maybe someone more familiar with PHP can confirm that is actually a valid method.
I tried adding that on my site when I had a problem and it worked. Login issues seem to occur after I log in and out with different users to test set up's, etc.
I've never heard of a GET-var within coppermine that is labelled "clearcookies". Not a function built-into PHP afaik. If this worked for you: fine. However, I think it was just coincidence.
