I seemed to remember that the cookie problem with mailman and konqueror was only for recent versions of mailman 2.0 and didn't affect 2.0.5 (which is what lists.sourceforge.net still runs due to the 8 or so patches I have against it, and the fact that we didn't seem to need to upgrade to the newer versions)
So: does the cookie/konqueror problem also affect 2.0.5 or is this a separate problem?

Nothing has changed on the client side since it worked last. After successfully entering the admin interface with my password I get an error message saying "Error decoding authorization cookie" when trying to view the next authenticated page. I cleared the cookie cache and tried again, but the problem continued. This is with Konqueror/KDE 2.2 on Linux. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Tavis Rudd (tavis_rudd) Date: 2002-01-01 11:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=239334 The same thing happens when I try Konqueror 2.2 on another machine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marc Merlin (marcmerlin) Date: 2002-01-01 00:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6500 Mmmh, we have many konqueror users and you are the first one to complain. I seem to remember that more recent mailmans had a bug with cookies and konqueror, but the one on SF.net shouldn't have the bug. To rule out weird things, do you mind trying from another machine with konqueror? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tavis Rudd (tavis_rudd) Date: 2001-12-30 12:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=239334 It just worked with IE, but as Konqueror hasn't had any cookie problems with other applications I think this a bug in Mailman's cookie parsing rather than a bug in Konqueror. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marc Merlin (marcmerlin) Date: 2001-12-30 11:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6500 Check whether this also happens if you use another browser. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200001&aid=497696&group_id=1 ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Microsoft is to operating systems & security .... .... what McDonalds is to gourmet cooking Home page: http://marc.merlins.org/ | Finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP key ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
