Public bug reported: Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
When I first upgraded to karmic I was able to enter login information on webpages and when I return to the site at a later date the login information would be autocompleted for me once the page completes loading. In the last week or so this behavior stopped occurring. I believe the package that was updated may have been a xulrunner package but Epiphany is now built on a WebKit backend so I don't know why the Mozilla (and thus Gecko) xulrunner components getting changed would affect this behavior. SYSTEM STATS: Ubuntu version: 9.10 Epiphany version: 2.28.0-4ubuntu1 AFFECTED SITES: Gmail, WordPress.com, Ubuntu Forums, Launchpad, Boston Public Library online catalog (http://catalog.mbln.org/ipac20/ipac.jsp?profile=bpl1) etc. REPRODUCABLE: 100% reproducable STEPS: 1. Launch Epiphany and surf to a website that requires logging in 2. Enter your username and password 3. The login credentials are accepted and you are able to use the complete feature set of the website. 4. Close Epiphany 5. At some point in the future (the next day, if not later in that same day) launch Epiphany 6. Return to the website's login page EXPECTED: Once the login page finishes being rendered your username and password is entered into the fields (with the password being shown simply as a string of dots or asterisks) ACTUAL: Once the login page finishes being rendered the username and password fields are blank with no way to retrieve them short of typing them in manually. Not even the password is provided once the username is entered and you tab or click to the password field ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: 6577f4a98123013ed895d57580291f00 CheckboxSystem: fc73f07fcd9845bb95fa3ca6b8be7ef2 Date: Mon Nov 16 06:52:32 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: epiphany-browser 2.28.0-4ubuntu1 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-15.50-generic SourcePackage: epiphany-browser Uname: Linux 2.6.31-15-generic i686 XsessionErrors: (gnome-settings-daemon:1690): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (nautilus:1751): Eel-CRITICAL **: eel_preferences_get_boolean: assertion `preferences_is_initialized ()' failed (gnome-panel:1726): Gdk-WARNING **: /build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.18.3/gdk/x11/gdkdrawable-x11.c:952 drawable is not a pixmap or window (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:1869): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed (Do:1881): Wnck-CRITICAL **: wnck_set_client_type got called multiple times. ** Affects: epiphany-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 -- Login information is no longer remembered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483566 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to epiphany-browser in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
