Sudden login problems
Vote:
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I searched and couldn't find anything.
A clients EPiServer 4.61 installation all of a sudden fails all authentication attempts on all accounts. A server reboot does not help, and as far as I know, nothing has been changed on the server (except perhaps content changes).
I don't have physical access to the server (nor can I log in remotely), so I would like to know, is it possible to turn on detailed debugging information about why an authentication attempt fails?
Regards,

Hi,
Yes its possible and recommended. See this FAQ about how to enable EPiServer Logging:

More detailed information can be found in this technote:

Thanks! Although it wasn't helpful in debugging _why_ login fails (the logs only says "1.2.3 Authenticate request" and nothing about failed logins), I did see that some users actually managed to login. So I guess the admin account and some of the editor accounts have lost their rights somehow...
