In my lynxrc file I have:
cookie_file=/home/lwv26/.parms/lynx_cookies
which has the permissions:
-rw------- 1 lwv26 dept26 7167 Nov 24 07:16 /home/lwv26/.parms/lynx_cookies
In the old lynx, I see:
HTParse: result:file://localhost/home/lwv26/.parms/home.html
HTMLDTD: Copying DTD element info of size 5192, 118 * 44
HTMLSetCharacterHandling: LYRawMode changed OFF -> ON
LYLoadCookies: reading cookies from /home/lwv26/.parms/lynx_cookies
but in the new lynx I see:
HTParse: result:file://localhost/home/lwv26/.parms/home.html
HTMLSetCharacterHandling: LYRawMode changed OFF -> ON
ProcessMailcapFile: Loading file '/projects/sprs_lwv/lib/lynx/mailcap'.
For some reason, it seems to be either skipping the cookie file reading
or not tracing it.
I went into dbx and stopped in LYMain.c where persistent cookes should
be loaded. I see this:
1580
1581 #ifdef EXP_PERSISTENT_COOKIES
1582 /*
1583 * Sod it, this looks like a reasonable place to load the
1584 * cookies file, probably. - RP
1585 */
1586 if (persistent_cookies) {
1587 if(LYCookieFile == NULL) {
1588 LYAddPathToHome(LYCookieFile = malloc(LY_MAXPATH), LY_MAXPATH,
COOKIE_FILE);
1589 } else {
1590 if ((cp = strchr(LYCookieFile, '~'))) {
(dbx 18) print persistent_cookies
persistent_cookies = '\0'
So for some reason things are getting botched early on...
