I'm experiencing this too from time to time. When there's some problem
with registration (a temporary error), Linphone shows the login popup,
but it doesn't place in the password field the current password for the
user to just click "ok" or "retry". This is the actual issue.
The common behavior for most apps it to show the login popup prefilled
with the current user/pass and the buttons Login and Cancel (Thunderbird
shows Retry/Change pass/Cancel). If the user clicks Cancel, the app will
try to login again after some time with the user/password unchanged.
Linphone just deletes the current password on login failure requiring
the user to retype it again.

The only thing that happens without an action that requires
authentication is registration.
If registration failed 100% of the time then I would say the password
that linphone stores is incorrect.
If it fails randomly then the issue may be at the provider.
If its not the provider then something interesting is going on.
Would need to see a log to investigate further.

Hi Russell
It just seems to pop up randomly, not after performing any action.
Maybe it's something with my VOIP provider but I thought I would ask
the group.
It's not a big deal, just a bit annoying.
Thanks

Does this happen when you
register
make a call
send and instant message
or some combination of the above?
Is it just one domain that you are having problems with?

Hi Russell
It comes up with the pop-up box saying it can't authenticate
and I have to put the password in for it to work again.
Thanks

How do you know it forgets your password?
Does it remember the password after it forgets it
without it being reset?

HI
I am using Linphone Desktop 4.1.1 - Qt5.9.0 Core
3.12.0 on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.3 and Linphone
often forgets my SIP account password lately.
Is anyone else having any issue?
Kind regards
