Thanks for the explanation! I'll keep this tagged for future reference, like I said someone is certain to ask me about it again.

When you navigate directly to /shared/login/login.jsp those modules/functions don't get loaded so when you try to login and the login script calls one/both of the functions they aren't available. I may not be describing this accurately since I am not intimately familiar with Java...but I did trace this a few years back when we were on 6.3 and thats what I came up with. -Eli _____ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe Castleman Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 10:45 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Return to home page ** Glad to see that this topic came up: I know that the [server]/shared/login/login.jsp URL will often fail on the first attempt, whereas the [server]/home URL is reliable. But what is the reason for this? Someone keeps asking me, and we're both tired of me saying "that's just the way it is."
