Description

I ran Archiva on my windows box and, after configuring the admin user, I was able to login. The header of the web page identified me as Administrator (admin) and I could see all the expected functions on the left hand frame. So far so good.

I had Archiva installed on a linux box and started. I surfed to the box from Windows and configured the admin user. But when I logged in as admin I got a page with only Search/FindArtifact/Browse functions. The header page reads "Login - Register". It is as if I am not logged in and am seeing the guest functions. Note that if I log in with a deliberately incorrect password then I get an error message as expected. But logging in with the right credentials appears to fail silently.

As a result I cannot deploy any artifacts into Archiva, I cannot roll out the maven/subversion/archiva based edition of our in-house project, and I fear my time is limited!
