Changes by: Mathieu Roy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2002-Sep-23 16:40 (Europe/Paris) ------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ---------------------------- The interest is having prefs without being logged in. Anyway, apparently the function setcookie is unable to set the cookie domain unless the domain choosed is the name of the server. It means that savannah.gnu.org will probably not granted to set a cookie for savannah.nongnu.org. =================== BUG #1260: FULL BUG SNAPSHOT =================== Submitted by: ydirson Project: Savannah Submitted on: 2002-Sep-23 10:25 Category: None Severity: 5 - Average Priority: None Bug Group: None Resolution: None Assigned to: None Status: Open Effort: 0.00 Summary: New "nongnu.org" site breaks sessions and prefs Original Submission: I just discovered that non-gnu projects appear to have been migrated to savannah.nongnu.org - maybe some announcement should be done so that people would know something changed. As a consequence of this change, when I login as usual in s.gnu.org, then follow an admin link to one of my projects, I reach an annoying "Insufficient Group Access". If I login there, I do not get my prefs. Follow-up Comments ******************* ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2002-Sep-23 16:40 By: yeupou The interest is having prefs without being logged in. Anyway, apparently the function setcookie is unable to set the cookie domain unless the domain choosed is the name of the server. It means that savannah.gnu.org will probably not granted to set a cookie for savannah.nongnu.org. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2002-Sep-23 15:07 By: ydirson What are the reasons behind having some prefs depending on cookies ? Eg., I can't see why the selected theme is not in the db ? To share the sessions, what about setting cookies for both sites at once ? (hm, I currently block cookies not matching current website:) ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2002-Sep-23 14:52 By: yeupou "Was such a mess worth the trouble ?" Yes. Having gnu.org in the url of non-GNU projects is highly misleading. "What about sharing at least prefs & such things ?" Prefs that depends on the database are already share. Prefs that depends on cookies not. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2002-Sep-23 14:40 By: ydirson Was such a mess worth the trouble ?

The problem is that savannah.gnu.org and savannah.nongnu.org are two virtuals hosts, understood as too differents servers. Session are stored via cookie for a particular server. So you need to be logged in the two separate servers.
