    ZBX_CONFIG cookie issue

    Hi guys

    I seem to run into all the realy odd bugs these days ;-) Anyway, here's the story.

    I tried to log into the Zabbix frontend while the database was not running. Naturally I received a few lines of error messages. That's all fine but the include/config.inc.php also wrongly assumes that I haven't configured the frontend yet and offers the setup screens. Since I already had run through the setup earlier I simply started the database and tried to access the login page again. Unfortunately I always get to the setup screens again.

    The problem is that the setup screen sets the ZBX_CONFIG cookie and probably only removes it at the end. If for some reason (see above) this cookie does not get removed it is impossible to access any other page than the setup screen. I had to remove the cookie manually.

    I believe you may also hit the Cancel button which brings you to the login screen, if configuration file exists of course.

      Ok, I didn't try that. Would that remove the cookie?
