Fresh Install – Cannot Login – page just refreshes

    I have tried 3 times now and after some reading it appears other are having the same problems – but why ?

    VPS Server running Windows

    A completely fresh install of WP 4.7.1 (have also tried going back to 4.6 same result)

    After the Install I then need to log in. Entering what I believe is the correct user details that was entered on running the install – all that happens is the details disappear and the page just sits there (page refreshes)

    Nothing I do gives me any other result.

    I then tried the Lost Password, entered the UserID – same thing
    I then tried entering the Email address however this time the login dialog just shakes.

    As I say I have tried this 3 times, each time a new database and whole new Domain creation as well.

    PLEASE Anyone ?? ??

    Thanks for the reply.

    Actually I did stumble on that and have been working my way through, all done now. No luck I’m afraid.

    cheers

    – Please check the error logs on your server for a more specific error message and see why it’s failing. If you need help locating them, ask your hosting provider to help you with that.
    – If you cannot find error logs or if you don’t find any helpful info in the error logs, try Enabling debugging .

    Thanks again,

    I have added the following lines, however nothing is being recorded in the log file at all. I have checked the path of the log file to make sure.

    // ———- Record Errors ——
    // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );

    // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );

    // Disable display of errors and warnings
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false );
    @ini_set( ‘display_errors’, 0 );

    // Use dev versions of core JS and CSS files (only needed if you are modifying these core files)
    define( ‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true );
