Problem: I have found that I am unable to login with users created via the admin area. I am working on a relatively clean install (two packages - CMSImport and NetAddict.Gmap). I have built the site to a decent starting point and am at the point where I am ready for people to start to add content to the site. But when I created a user for testing the writer permissions, I found I am unable to login to the back-end. I get this message in the console.
POST /umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoApi/Authentication/PostLogin 400 Bad Request 114ms
I have tried using both the userid and the email. I have tried using the reset password functionality, and copy/pasting the password and email address over. I have tried to set the user and an admin account. I have tried it both with my local install and in my production install.
Any ideas? I have looked through the logs (both Umbraco and site) and don't see anything suspicious, but perhaps I don't know what I am looking for.
First off - The username for the login is always the e-mail address when you're using Umbraco 7. So e-mail and password setup for the user should work.
Ok...So...What database are you using? Does the /app_data/logs file reveal any useful information? Anything marked with ERROR or Warning?
I must admit that I have never seen this issue before but perhaps it could be related to a permission issue on the system? On your local environment...what happens if you provide full access for the everyone role? If this works you should of course not apply that on the production environment...just want to test and figure out if it can be related to a permission issue.
Sorry about forgetting to mention the dB. I'm using SQL server (2008 R2 locally, 2012 on the live site).
I don't see anything in the tracelog. I just tried to reproduce the problem, but nothing got added to the log. Last error I see which might be similar to this problem would be:

For the record, the back-end uses value in the login field to work, or at least it did when I made it match the value in the email address. When they are different, I couldn't use either fields. When I made them the same, it worked. Ugh. Should have caught that.

Hi David

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for getting back to me.

sigh. I KNEW it was going to be something stupid.

is working on a reply...
