[SOLVED] CB login module not working; loads cb-login page instead

I'm not seeing any errors in the logs, logging in from the module just simply doesn't work, and instead the CB Login page is loaded. Here's the scenario:

1. From any page on the site, user enters username and password in the module and clicks the "Log in" button.

2. The regular CB Login page (the same one as index.php?option=com_comprofiler&view=login) is loaded. It requests the username and password.

If you then enter the username and password, the login is successful.

I've tried disabling the CB login module and using the simple Joomla login, and the Joomla login module works.

Any idea where I could start looking for the problem?

Enable debug mode and maximum error reporting in Joomla global configuration. Next switch to default Joomla template. Now attempt to login from your CB login module and see if any errors output or if the message queue mentions anything wrong (should be displayed above the login form on the login page).

Hello, I am having a similar / same problem. It's a J3.4 site using CB2.0.9.
No matter what url I put into the CB login module, I get a 404 - Category not found error.

I followed your advise about debug mode and max error reporting and got this result

And I am also getting a redirect to the CB Login page as well.....

If you could provide some feedback urgently it would be much appreciated. My client site is going live on Monday to 500 members. Didn't quite realise the severity of this issue.

Create a public and published Joomla menu link to CBs profile page. This is mandatory. If you've a menu link to CBs login page then ensure it's public access. The 404 you're getting is an access denied error thrown by Joomla. Check the Itemid in the URL you're seeing the 404 and compare it to its menu item to find what menu item the login page is using then change the access to public.

OK, I have done some extensive testing and here is the result -- essentially, logging in via the CB Login page works perfectly; trying to log in directly via the CB Login Module simply results in a redirect to the CB Login page. But I can't see any errors.

I got the same results using our site template, and using the default Beez5 template:

-- No HTTP or Javascript errors
-- No errors in the Joomla error log
-- Errors in the Joomla debug messages:
**Not loaded** : JROOT/language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_cblogin.ini
**Not loaded** : JROOT/modules/mod_cblogin/language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_cblogin.ini

I checked the file system and these two files do not exist. Perhaps this is the problem?

I also checked component versions, just FYI:

Joomla Version 2.5.24
Community Builder version 2.0.4
CB Login Module version 2.0.4

Any idea where to look next?
