login does not work properly

web-app

Today I've manually upgraded from 2.1.1 to 2.2.5. Unfortunately, the redirection after login does not work properly.
I get the following error message in Firefox 2.0.9:

The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
    *   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept
          cookies.

The page is redirect to http://devitco.de/issues/Default.aspx?x=1 and than the error occurs (/issues is the virtual directory, where Gemini is installed in).

I did not disable cookies and four cookies are set. If I try to navigate to the main page, the redirect error occurs immediately and I can not get the login page. If I remove the cookies, the login page is correctly shown, but login still does not work.

With IE, I get an endless loop after login.

The authentication works in general, because a bad account/password produces an error message.

I also made a SQL query agains the errorlog, but no error message is stored.

How can I solve this problem?

I'm running IIS6 on Win2003 with SQL 2000.

Are you using the old web.config file?

No, I merged the relevant entries from the old file into the new file.

That were just the ProfilesServer connectionString and the hibernate.connection.connection_string.

Can you try a clean install on another machine that references the same database?

Yes, I tried a clean installation at another machine. The problem still persists.

Then I verified the stored procedure permissions. They were removed, because of the create_procs.sql script. After setting the permissins again for the database user, it works now. :)
