I just upgraded to the March 17th nightly build and I can't login as the admin. The admin is the only user, so of course, I can't login at all.

I upgraded from the first Beta. With that version and the alpha versions I used, I had this problem when I was using Safari, but it would login in if I used Firefox. Now, both of them won't log in. (I also checked IE and had no luck). I am 100% certain the password and username are correct.

When I enter the login details, I just end up back at the main screen and I am not logged in. I don't get any error.

Any help would be great.

for the record: dsawchuk is using embedded G2. so this issue is a "login/cookie problems with embedded G2 when using it in standalone".

dsawchuk, delete all GALLERYSID cookies for the domain where this G2 is hosted on. then you can login. this is a known issue and deleting the GALLERYSID cookies is a known solution. so if it doesn't work on the first try, try again in another browser, i bet that it works. and when trying again to login, make sure there's no GALLERYSID part in the url.
