Localhost Cannot Log In

  • Hi,

    The other day I was unable to login in to WordPress via localhost so I deleted and re-installed WP and was able to access my site yesterday. Today however, I am unable to login again. I get this message:

    ERROR: Cookies are blocked due to unexpected output. For help, please see this documentation or try the support forums.

    I am using the latest version of Firefox.

    Also, I get no response when I try to click on the “lost password” button.

    I have enabled cookies in my browser.

    What could be wrong? Thanks. This is very frustrating.

  • A couple of things:

    1. As a workaround, are you able to try a different browser?
    2. Have a look at this topic in Codex. It appears that after Ticket 27373, you are getting a specific error that isn’t about cookies being enabled or disabled, but something else.

    Try some of the things mentioned in that third link, and see how you go.
