After upgrading to 4.5.2 and then to 4.7.0 logging on the admin side of umbraco works perfectly in IE/Chrome, but Firefox just redirects itself back to the login page. Using fiddler is shows the URL request to /umbraco/umbraco.aspx/ then immediately goes to the /umbraco/logout.aspx?redir=%2fumbraco%2fumbraco.aspx%2f which takes you back to the login screen.
Any ideas? I'm baffled by this. I also tried clearing out FF cache/cookies/etc even rolled it up to the latest 4.X FF from 3.X, still no go.
Well, I have since wiped out the whole installation and started this over upgrading to just 4.5.2 I can now log in with FF. However, once logged in the admin images those in the tray in the bottom left no longer point to the image same goes for the Create/Help/Logout buttons across the top. Any ideas on that?
Well, I figured out the issue. When entering the HTTP Redirect on IIS 7.5 be very careful on how you do that. I had originally put the redirect address for when someone enters http://login.myurlhere.com/
This was done in an attempt to give the end users a simple way to access the login screen. It seemed it was stuck in a loop so instead of that address I pointed it to http://www.myurlhere.com/umbraco/login.aspx and in the box below there for Redirect behavior (which I believe is the key) I checked the "Redirect all requests to the exact destination (instead of relative to destination)" This has since fixed my problems in both FF/IE/Chrome.

Might seem like a random question but if this is on a server is the server date set correctly?
Yes it is the correct date/time.
Sorry, don't know then, have you got anyone else to try it in FireFox to test if it's just your machine?
Happy to test in FF here, if you want get me on twitter http://our.umbraco.org/member/5640 and DM me the details.
