I used coldfusion and access to create a database for my page and i am doing a practice test using the CF built in server....everything seems like it has connected fine, but when I do the preview in browser and I enter my username and password info, it takes me to my failed login page...

I used the tutorial found here http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=1&cid=A222302CBCA928EB
to create my access database...

can anyone help me on why this wouldnt work?
Thanks

Sounds like you have enabled sessions in the application.cfm, or
application.cfc file. If you are using an application.cfm file you need a
line like this in it

<cfapplication name="MyLiving" sessionmanagement="yes"
setclientcookies="yes" setdomaincookies="yes">
