They are running perfectly. But on my local machine ,I was using Abria Merlin 's free application server(Apache+PHP+Mysql..) on my Windows 2000 Server and Professional for testing purposes. I have use nuke7.1 and 7.2 sometimes. Later on I have uninstalled AbriaMerlin because the revisions of components are quite old. I have installed apache2triad which has newest version of components. Installation seems ok. Apache,Mysql seems ok. I have installed phpnuke 7.3 in htdocs , i have created db, make config.php settings , after creating admin account ,tried to login, but came the login window again withot any error. I tried again , it goes in loop.
I have installed nuke7.2 ,was the same. I have install same nukes on remote server , they are working.
I have searched the forums for admin loop , until now i can not find any solution.
BTW i have installed new XP with apache2 triad without success. I have tried another solutions like Foxserv , phptriad , appserv witout suceess neither.
I have checked the php.ini settings for cookie session , it is working. Also checked the nuke_authors and see the admin account there.

I will be very appreciated if someone find an answer for this problem.

Thanks in advance,

The admin loop problem is usually related to IIS servers and not Apache. If you are running IIS, you will need to do this.
In modules/Your_Account/index.php

Code:

replace: Header("Location: modules.php
with: Header("Refresh: 0;url=modules.php

You can also try clearing your cache and delting your cookies.

When you install apache2triad on XP ,it activates apache2 ,php and mysql . After installing it ,I can use apache and phpmyadmin under apache2/htdocs/phpmyadmin.
so do i still need to change that code on index.php .I have trouble with admin.php ,when i enter nickname and password and (if gfx-chk=7) sec code , it loops.

But in remote (apache server) no problem with same codes. Two possibility could be a problem. One is nuke settings other server settings. The most possible one is server settings. because of that i tried other appservers. Some people are saying without touching anything ,they could work with phpnuke. So i decided to use it on w2k pro ,after tried that with apache2 ,i got same result(no success).

I checked the cookies, tried the mozilla 1.7 and ie6 with no success.

I understand, but if IIS is activated it could be causing a problem. Are you certain that IIS is not running?

Just as an outside chance, are you running zonealarm?
