This is not related to cookies, but a bad redirect, meaning that the URL that XWiki generates is not good. You should: - install Live HTTP Headers in Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3829 - open Firefox, open Live HTTP Headers (it's in the Tools menu) - open the XWiki site - look in the LHH window and search for Location: lines, see what's the suggested location, post it here I think that it's a bad configuration. > Now, I had some difficulty with cookies and XWiki before, so I tried playing > around with the cookie settings in both browsers to see if this had any > different result.
