Good morning,
I'm running a local MODX-site (version 2.2.6-pl) with MAMP 2.1.3.
When I try to login, the "username" and "password" fields return blank almost immediately, so I can not login.
Clearing browsers caches, MODX caches, restarting MAMP, restarting the Mac have not solved the problem.
I consider developing the site online because it costs a lot of extra time, but I was wondering how your experience with MAMP is.
Thanks in advance!

I've never had a bit of trouble with it, and I install new copies in subdirectories at least once a week. You might want to try installing again.
Hi Susan,
I've installed a new version of MODX in another subdirectory.
Login for both sites works perfectly again.
Still not clear however what the problem was.

It may have been something with your browser cache or cookies for the localhost domain. That can often have odd effects.
To make life easier on myself, I always use the same username and login for my local installations; since I usually have half a dozen or more installation of Evo and Revo (sometimes even various versions) it's a lot easier for me to let my browser store the username/password for the localhost domain.
Sue,
I tried Chrome, Firefox and Safari with cleared browser settings.
Same results.

After some further investigation I discovered that the problem is not MAMP related, but only related to this particular site on my localhost.
Other MODX-sites on localhost are working without problems.
Checking the database with phpMyAdmin gave no errors.
The problem is still there.
"Fastest" way to login now is to reinstall MODX everytime I want to login.
Not an ideal situation however.
Any suggestions?
