Description Jeff McAffer CLA 2007-07-25 21:41:37 EDT
This is a minor annoyance but may be a symptom of an actual problem so I thought I'd report it...

- start a fresh Firefox session 
- go to enter a new bug using
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?classification=Eclipse
- you get prompted to login.  Fair enough.  log in
- rather than entering a new Eclipse bug, click on the New link at the bottom of the page to get the general new bug page
- you get prompted again (actualy it might be when you go to actually commit a new bug).

Either way the point is that the first login does not seem to have "stuck"

I can confirm the issue. I suspect it has something to do with the bug entry wizard.
Comment 2 Denis Roy CLA 2007-12-04 14:15:30 EST
I tried to reproduce this on Firefox and Konqueror on a couple of machines, and couldn't.  Is it possible the foot of snow we got in Ottawa yesterday fixed this?  If not, please reopen, but so far I can't reproduce this.

Still exists.

- Log out
- Click on "New" (in the footer)
-> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug_wizard.cgi
- Enter login credentials and click Login
-> You land on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi and are not logged in yet, i.e. you need to login again.

Oh, *that* I can reproduce.  That's different than what was described in comment 0.  You'd think these committer people could file better bug reports  ;)

I don't have an easy fix for this, so I'll let it simmer a bit.

Lowering severity to 'minor'
Comment 6 Denis Roy CLA 2009-08-26 10:33:45 EDT
Since the Wizard will be going away in favour of a guided entry, this problem will also go away witj bug 244441.
Comment 7 Denis Roy CLA 2009-08-31 11:05:25 EDT
The old Bug wizard is no longer with us, so this is no longer an issue.
