AdminCP short log-in time

Adam Howard

Well-known member
I seem to get logged out of the administrator control panel (AdminCP) fairly easily... ie... My ability to remain logged in for a longer time is not adequate.

So if I have a lot to do, say for example update 8 add-ons and remove 3, I'm just as likely to get logged out in the middle of rebuilding the cache (template).

Thoughts? Possible solutions?
 
At the moment, here is my htacess file (both copied and attached)

I don't believe there is anything here to cause an issue as the issue only affects AdminCP.

But here it is just for reference (ya never know)

PHP:
#The top of your .htaccess file
IndexIgnore *
Options +FollowSymLinks -Multiviews -Indexes
#    Mod_security can interfere with uploading of content such as attachments. If you
#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.
#<IfModule mod_security.c>
#    SecFilterEngine Off
#    SecFilterScanPOST Off

Do you have session caching enabled in your config file? I've seen this log you out immediately if misconfigured.
Current config.php

PHP:
<?php
#$config['enableListeners'] = false;
#$config['debug'] = 1;
$config['db']['host'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['db']['port'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['db']['username'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['db']['password'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['db']['dbname'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['superAdmins'] = 'It's a secret';
$config['javaScriptUrl'] = 'http://cdn.sociallyuncensored.com/js';
$config['externalDataUrl'] = 'http://cdn.sociallyuncensored.com/data';
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'])) { $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP']; }

Not currently using any cache opinions at the moment :)
 
It may well be affecting you on the front end, but if you have "remember me" selected, you won't notice (it'll create a new session with you logged in already silently).
