Unable to Log Out of site

On some servers (Ubuntu based?) you are taken to a login screen instead of being logged out of the site.  There are two fixes to this issue:

  • Use the regular log out command (from a menu, etc...) and in the browser address area, change the 'showlogin' at the end of the address to 'logout' and hit enter
  • A more permanent, yet custom to the server fix is to rename the 'login.php' file in the root folder to something like 'logmein.php'

The problem arises from the server looking for a file with the name of the controller BEFORE passing the url to Exponent for processing.  This only occurs with the 'Login' controller which is the only one with a filename identical to the controller name in the root web folder.
