It sounds like you might be on a load-balanced cluster. If
this site is on
shared hosting, that's a distinct possibility. If you have
dedicated
hosting (i.e., you get your own server) or you operate a
server in-house,
then we'll try to figure something else out. But my first
guess is that
you're on a cluster and that the server that processes your
login isn't
necessarily the same server that serves the next page
request. In that
situation, your host will need to install a third-party
"sticky sessions"
service. They might have one already; some require you to
initialize a
shared session in a certain way. Check your documentation.
