Cannot connect to Typo3 V6.2.1 backend on windows 7

I have installed Typo3 on my computer (running on W7 with wamp) and I have some problem to connect to the backend.

The installation process is working fine but when I try to connect, after typing my username and password the system displays "Verifying login data..." forever. I am sure that I have typed the correct information.

I used PHP 5.3.28 (UI have tried with PHP 5.4.31 with the same result), apache 2.2.17 and MySQL 5.5.8.

Could you please help me?

Thanks,

Manu

If you open the browser's inspection tools, you will see that it's a ajax request that gets back with a http 500 error code. If you try this http request in the browser, you will probably get the error :

<t3err>No OpenSSL backend could be obtained for rsaauth.</t3err>

Which gives us some insight.

As stated in Exception/CMS/1318283565, found when googling the t2err error, it's a OpenSSL Issue. Two solutions :

  • Get your openssl configuration right (see previous link)

  • Fallback to a non-rsa authentication method - not recommended :

    • edit the LocalConfiguration.php, set loginSecurityLevel to normal

    • update the user hashed password in database (change 'admin' by your login) :

      UPDATE be_users SET password=md5('your_new_password') WHERE username = 'admin';

change

TYPO3_CONF_VARS[‘FE’][‘loginSecurityLevel’] = ‘rsa’;

to 

TYPO3_CONF_VARS[‘FE’][‘loginSecurityLevel’] = ‘normal’;

For me the problem was that OpenSSL was not installed.

First I ignored the problem Typo3 complained about because on a local System I was not worried about security. But the installation fixed the login issue.

Try to check the http-calls in the browser (F12 -> Network-Tab), maybe there is a response with a helpful message! Also check your server-logs and post more specific errors.

Check if you have all php-dependencies/modules installed and set

memory_limit = 128M

in the php.ini for your TYPO3-instance.
