Xibo not reacting to login attempt

Hi Malte,
do you also have this when you go to the server from another workstation ?

if yes, then check if the http port is open on the server/client (netstat -an -> check if port 80 is running)
I had a simular case and there the client was running on the cached data.

if no,
then try to clear the cache or reset the IE settings if using IE

Yes, the behaviour is the same, both when on the server and when accessing the server from another host. I cleared the browser cache on the other host and on server/client machine. The server/client machine is actually built into a Samsung wide screen tv and restarts every morning, so I'd say there shouldn't be anything cached after a restart, except for the browser cache, right?

Port 80 is open, as one can see by opening the xibo web page!

Try clearing the session table in the database. That would survive a
reboot. Failing that reset the password for your user account as it could
have been changed?

Aha! Mysql Error 145: The table .xibo\session crashed and needs to be repaired. How do I do that? Is it a Mysql specific command?

"repair table xibo.session" in the phpmyadmin did the trick. Thanks for the input.
