I have been on .6.4 for some time and have grown my codebase  
substantially, having about a dozen custom extensions and a half dozen  
plugins. Recently, I have attempted to move to the latest version  
(.6.9) but I am having a rough go of it. (I have even moved some of my  
extensions from “vendor” to prevent their inclusion.) I followed the  
upgrade instructions.

The front-end of the site seems to display fine. It’s the backend that  
won’t display. I can’t even reach the login page.

I’ve attached the portion of the log that I get after typing the  
following in the address bar:

[http://localhost:3000/admin](http://localhost:3000/admin)

I have a markaby filter integrated into the site; however, I can’t see  
as that should pose any issues since the admin login page doesn’t make  
use of it.

It may also be that I am having to take the leap to Rails 2 as well and  
some things are in need of conversion.

Any ideas? I’ve been on this for hours. ☹

Thanks in advance for any leads.  
Mario

Mario,

Yes, it looks like your version of Radiant is tweaked enough that it may  
not work. I would suggest disabling extensions one by one until you can  
get a login. It also is strange that it’s redirecting to user/index  
instead of welcome/login. Does one of your extensions do this?

It may also be related to the request forgery protection that came in  
0.6.7. First, edit environment.rb so it uses the :cookie\_store for  
session cookies. You can also do this by doing rake radiant:update,  
which should replace environment.rb for you. After you’ve done that,  
clear any session cookies in your browser, and you should be able to  
login.
