 * I am facing a weird issue after upgrade to latest version.
 * The admin login keeps re-directing back to login page after successful login.
   Removing the salts from wp-config.php resolves the issue but makes the site unsecure.
 * Would appreciate help on this.

 * What happens if you add new Salts and then clear your browser cache?

 * That brings the login refresh error is back.
 * It only works correctly when no salts are added.

 * Sorry cannot provide it. It is a sandbox site accessible through intranet.
