description:
When using Galeon to log into sites such as my.yahoo.com, slashdot.org,
ClubMandrake, etc, my expectation is that cookies specific to thes sites should
be used to retain login ingormation so that returning to these sites after
closing Galeon should not require logging in again unless the cookie has expired
due to old age, (generally not on the same day as the previous login.) I am not
having that experience.
in an attempt to get Galeon to behave as expected, I have deleted the following
folders with no apparent effect.
~/.galeon
~/.gconf/apps/galeon
~/.gconf/apps/gnome-config/galeon
After deleting the ~/.mozila directory, all history items were also lost,
however Galeon is still either not saving cookies with the appropriat
einformation, or is not able to retreive that information at a later time.
searches for cookies from the ~/ directory by root do not show any files with a
partial name of cookie, nor any file with the name of the domain that the cookie
belongs to.
This may be reated to the method of install I made for Beta3, RC1 and RC2. I had
made an earlier install of Knoppix (debian based distribution) with the /home
folder being it's own partition, and everything else in the / folder (partition)
Instalation of Beta3 was done by formatting the / partition, and leaving the
/home partition as /home. As this system has no mission critical data on it I
will attempt another install by deleting content from all partitions (clean
install) and will provide an update that way as well.
I suspect this problem will be most obvious to people who upgrade from other
operating systems.
