Sitecore 6.6 InvalidOperationException: 'Remember Me' checkbox

Question

Sitecore 6.6 login fails, irrespective of whether I check or un-check "Remember Me"

Though error details show the method, I cannot debug that as it is part of Sitecore DLL.

Answer 1

The error is due to the fact that the Remember Me checkbox ID is missing. Please see the decompiled code from the Sitecore.Client.dll below

  CheckBox checkBox = this.Login.FindControl("Remember") as CheckBox;
  Assert.IsNotNull((object) checkBox, "'Remember Me' checkbox.");

This is where it is crashing. In order to fix this, go to the login page, found in the following path: Website\\sitecore\\login . Open the default.aspx with a text editor and see if the remember checkbox ID is Remember
