I reinstalled piwik after migrating from a shared to dedicated server. I went thru the entire Piwik setup instructions and selected to have the "old" database files deleted and reinstalled with new tables.

I added the first website and got the tracking code.

Now Im trying to login again, enter username and password, click Sign In and it just erases my username and password.

I dont even get an error message. It just continues to do this everytime i try

Now I am getting this and my cookies are enabled:

Are you using piwik behind a proxy? try with a different browser maybe?

I had the same problem. In my case it worked again after I commmented
session_save_handler = "dbtable"
so it saves in filesystem (default) again. After that I could login again without problems.
