Magento 1.9.1.0 Customer Unable Login Chrome Browser Only

Question

Strange situation with Magento Customer login for Chrome only (and mobile chrome browser).

Users can not login via customer/account/login/

They can login via checkout/onepage/

I have added:

<input type="hidden" name="form_key" value="<?php echo Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getFormKey(); ?>" />

to login.phtml underneath:

<ul class="form-list"> 

in

• template/persistent/checkout/onepage
• template/persistent/customer/form

I have increased the Cookie Lifetime to 33600 I have set the cookie domain (as recommended by a post on a forum, apprently google can be funny with cookies and there source).

Cache is all cleared in browsers and in var/cache and cleared in admin. Sessions are cleared and session folder is set to 755 file permissions.

Any help at all would be appreciated

Answer 1

Only by removing all the files and doing a fresh install, reapply the theme I was able to overcome this issue.
