Hi,

I updated Joomla to 3.8.1 the other day, and slowly working my way through upgrading all my components to bring everything up-to-date. I have recently updated Akeeba Backup and Admin Tools. I am having access problems with Chrome, Firefox and Explorer. All are producing a Login error which says:

Login violation, this account is also being accessed by somewhere else. You should change the password if you are the owner

They also produce a Too many redirects error.

Is this an Akeeba issue? If yes, how would I go about correcting it?

I have attached a copy of my htaccess file just in case this is the cause.

Kind regards

Mel

Hi Nicholas,

just to update you, as you already knew it wasn't anything to do with Akeeba. Finally found the culprit, it was something called PayPlans that had enabled auto login restriction plugins.

Just thought I would let you know in case others have problems with this.

Kind regards
