Wow! Thanks for the update, that would've been pretty much impossible to find!

Does IE8 have the same problem still?

For the archive...

IE7 cannot properly manage cookies and browser sessions are broken when the web domain name includes an underscore. Read the following for more info on
this bug:

In my case, I was using an internal WinXP machine with a computer name that contains an underscore as my JSPWiki server. The underscore in the JSPWiki URL exposed this bug in IE7. I solved the problem by renaming the computer.

Thanks for your help,
David

Dirk, if IE7 works for you on jspwiki.org, then there is an issue with my instance. Do you have any suggestion for how I might debug the IE7 problem
that I'm having on my instance of JSPWiki?

Thanks,
David

Yep. I did a few tests myself, and I am perfectly able to login using IE7. (using jspwiki.org)I did notice a problem with the UserPref screen during my
login tests. (JSPWIKI-561)

But I did notice that the login form does not show error messages when
submitted under IE7.  So problably something is going wrong during the
submit.
Strange we didn't notice this before...

More testing needed ;-)

Thanks Dirk. I checked "Java logging enabled" in IE7 advanced options and then looked for a javalog.txt file in the Windows/Java directory. No file was generated. Assuming I have done the correct thing, this seems to mean
that no javascript errors are occurring. Am I correct?

David,

As this seems to be a browser/IE7 specific issues, may it could be
javascript related.
Can you check if there is a js error when submitting the login page.


In IE, you can set the option to catch all javascript error and get some
error info. That would be very useful.

Thanks for helping. I tried 2.8.2 with no luck. IE7 still constantly
redirects to the login page. Any other suggestions?

Could you try 2.8.2, please? There were some changes made into the
login process after 2.8.1, so those might
be helping you.

(Aside from that, congrats on being the first Chrome user to come out
of the closet on this mailing list ;-)

We use JSPWiki as a common internal-use-only scratchpad within our
small
company. We only want known folks using the wiki. I've configured
security
to restrict any anonymous or asserted user to the login page only.
Furthermore, anonymous and asserted users cannot create an account. I control access to the wiki via manual edits to the userdatabase.xml
file.
Here are the jspwiki.policy entries:

grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "All" {
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"login";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Anonymous" {
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Asserted" {
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role
"Authenticated" {
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.PagePermission
"*:*",
"view";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"editPreferences";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"editProfile";
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.PagePermission
"*:*",
"modify,rename";
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.GroupPermission
"*:*",
"view";
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.GroupPermission
"*:<groupmember>", "edit";
permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*",
"createPages,createGroups";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.GroupPrincipal "Admin" {
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.AllPermission "*";
};
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Admin" {
  permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.AllPermission "*";
};

Is there a solution to my IE7 login problem?

Thanks in advance,
David
