I have two lamp post lights, wired in line. No dusk/dawn eye. The first post light lights. The second does not

Question

There is power to the second post light. There is also power in the light socket itself. I've checked the ground at both lights and they appear to be working fine.  What could be the problem?

Do you have power to ground on both the hot wire and the neutral wire at the lamp socket? If you do, you have a broken neutral between the light and the neutral of the first light. If you have power across the hot and neutral (usually black and white wires) then change the bulb as mmathis said. By the way neutral and ground are not the same at the appliance.
