Magento 1.9.1.1 

After installation, i can't loggin to my backend page. 

When i trying to log in with my username and password, the page just reloading and show new url like this :

http://localhost/magento/index.php/admin/index/index/key/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/


Clear session, clear cookies it still doesn't work.

I posted about this recently in the forum:
http://community.magento.com/t5/Installing-Magento/Double-Login-to-admin/m-p/6715#M1005

See if this is the issue...

do not use "localhost", just create any virtual name in hosts file...

you probably have 3 problems:

- session died before you can use it

- cookie do not match your domain name

- or even double cookie

I have the same problem but clearing out cookies won't help. Since I have it installed on my laptops virtual server for testing reasons I can't figure out whats the problem

I also have the same problem, its really annoying. Can any one please help.

Try another browser. I had the same problem with Chrome but when I access with Firefox it's ok.

I don't know the reason behind it, but i know the solution. Same did happen with me when i just installed the magento 1.9.3 through softaculous app installer and after successful installation when i tried to login it did the same what your magento is doing. So i delete the local.xml file which is the database configuration file of magento. Go to app/etc/ and delete local.xml file. Now go to your site and reconfigure your magento site with the previous database info. Issue resolved.

Hi @rfkf

Try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost in your site url.
