We just updated from 7.0.x to 7.5.1. Everything works as expected except that webmail dpes not allow any users to login. There is no error message, just redirects immediately back to https://OUR.DOMAIN.com/HooDoo/lang/EN/login.aspx whenever we enter any valid or invalid username and password.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Clear the browsers cache and search history. Ensure you access the interface via http://mail.example.com and not via an old browser bookmark.

Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
If you are in IE, this may also be because you are running in compatibility mode. My users cannot log in with compatibility mode enabled in 7.51.
Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
We tested this with IE, Safari, Chrome, and FireFox. We cleared the cache and history. No change:
After we installed the update to 7.5.1 webmail will immediately redirect to the login page when clicking 'Login'. Even if we do enter invalid credentials no error message shows, the page just gets reloaded.
Any other recommendation on where to look?
Thanks in advance,
Tobias

Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
Hi,
This sounds like a misconfiguration for the web mail interface under IIS. Possibly permissions. Run the meinstaller.exe utility located in the MailEnable BIN folder and execute option 2 to reinstall the web mail components and reset any incorrect permission settings. Are there any errors reported in the Windows event log at the same time you try and login?

Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
I had the same problem after updating to 7.51. Following message appeared:
In Webmail 7.50 this parameter is missing. I deleted in line 18 this parameter, and Webmail works fine.
This message leads to the solution: Parse error: unknown attribut requestValidationModeServerfehler in der Anwendung /mewebmail.
Konfigurationsfehler
Beschreibung: Fehler beim Verarbeiten einer Konfigurationsdatei, die für diese Anforderung erforderlich ist. Überprüfen Sie die unten angegebenen Fehlerinformationen, und ändern Sie die Konfigurationsdatei entsprechend.

In Webmail 7.50 this parameter is missing. I deleted in line 18 this parameter, and Webmail works fine.

Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
Thanks Ian and Reinhard.
Unfortunately that did not help either. I ran MEInstaller and re-installed the web mail components.
No change. Afterwards I tried the change to the config file.
I do not see any application errors from ASP or inside the event viewer.
When I enter anything valid or invalid into the login screen it immediately redirects to itself.
I am stumped.

Re: 7.5.1 Webmail does not allow login
This problem seems to be fixed in 7.52
