Topic: Cacti Broke

[Graham]

Been running Cacti on our SME Server for a while now until yesterday when it broke, we can no longer login after providing our user details Firefox reports:

Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested page.  This may be caused by cookies that are blocked.

Also on the login screen the Cacti logo isn’t displayed, I’ve removed Cacti and installed it again and still not working.

I’ve got this from the httpd access logs just can’t work out why it’s doing it.

This issue doesn't seem to only affect cacti it also seems to affect the phpmyadmin Contrib
