There are two issues:

1) the login page has expired (to prevent people from reusing your login page after you've logged out and left the site)

2) you're successfully logged in, but the login expires very quickly.

To my knowledge, I've actually fixed both of these.

I just checkout the 5.0.4-final version from cvs, and I am afraid to report that the login problem still there. Just to reiterate, I changed in the permissions of acs-kernel  LoginExpirationTime from 1200 to 0 and I get "The login page has expired. Please log in again." The only remedy is to change the record in apm_paramter_values.

http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/acs-subsite/lib/login.tcl?r1=1.20&r2=1.21

if { $expiration_time < 30 } {
              # If expiration_time is less than 30 seconds, it's practically impossible to login
              # and you will have completely hosed login on your entire site
              set expiration_time 30
          }

This bug has been there since the beginning of times.
