    For the last few days i havent been able to login to my WP site.
    successful login just forwards back to the login page. in correct login gives the correct message about the username/password mismatch.

    I have tried:

    1) renaming plugins folder (no change)
    2) checking paths in config file (there were none)
    3) checked the paths in the database (home and siteurl both looks OK)
    4) renamed the theme folder (no change)
    5) deleted my own browser cache and cookies

    is there something else i can check?

    my htaccess is below:

    # Switch rewrite engine off in case this was installed under HostPay.
RewriteEngine Off

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php53 .php .php5

DirectoryIndex index.cgi index.php

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    Thanks!

    For people who have this in the future:

    I enabled the debug option in the config file, and found that the database user did not have write permissions, due to the hosting package being over quota.
