Description Missing name CLA 2007-02-12 04:14:39 EST
Build ID: n/a

Steps To Reproduce:
when using trac with account manager plugin and httpauth plugin the following happens:
* via xml-rpc it works great now, thanks steffen!
* try to open the browser the login information for some reason is not valid any more?
* this is ennoying if you have rights assigned which allow you to not view tickets if not logged in.


More information:
can it be that this happens via cookie and eclipse does not store it? because if i log in into a browser via the xmlrpc url (basic auth) it is also valid for all the other urls, which normally are secured by an auth-form.

We currently do not provide authentication credentials to the browser (see bug 163120). 

Usually it should be good enough to log in once in the browser widget which should store the session cookie as long as Eclipse is running. Is that the case or do you have to login each time you switch to the browser widget?

Just out of curiosity, what do you use the browser widget for?

Sounds similar to bug#163120: Investigate how to provide authentication credentials to browser widget

browser view shows wiki formatting, and a drop down where there should be a drop down for custom fields.
Comment 6 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-03-15 20:49:44 EDT
Thank you for your feedback. I hope we can improve handling of custom fields in the next milestone (bug 171722) release.

Please file a new report if you need wiki formatting in the rich editor.
