Magento : Invalid Form Key After Migration

Question

I know question has been asked alot, but none of suggestions work for me.

I migrated files and database to my localhost (Windows/Xampp)

The front-end of the site is working fine, but I cant log in to admin part due to this invalid form key.

I tried all the options, I could find in other posts which are:

• deleting web/cookie/cookie_domain and web/cookie/cookie_path records in db
• clear Magento cache files
• clear browser cache
• try other browsers
• editing session_set_cookie_params()
• adding php_value max_input_vars 75000 to php.ini

What else can I try to get into the admin panel?

Answer 1

It turned out, the timezone set in the database, didn't match the timezone in the config.xml.

the db record was in core_config_data with path general/locale/timezone in config.xml it was inbetween <timezone></timezone>

Making sure both were set to the same values solved my problem
