Scenario:
* anonymous users have no access.
* Giving anonymous users TICKET_VIEW avoids this issue.
* Using AccountManagerPlugin.
* From trac.ini
[components]
acct_mgr.admin.accountmanageradminpage = enabled
acct_mgr.api.accountmanager = enabled
acct_mgr.db.sessionstore = enabled
acct_mgr.htfile.htpasswdstore = disable
acct_mgr.pwhash.htpasswdhashmethod = enabled
acct_mgr.web_ui.accountmodule = enabled
acct_mgr.web_ui.emailverificationmodule = disabled
acct_mgr.web_ui.loginmodule = enabled
acct_mgr.web_ui.registrationmodule = disabled
* Make an Excel spreadsheet with a cell with a link to a ticket, e.g.
http://<host>/trac/ticket/123
* If one has not recently visited the referenced ticket in IE (yes
IE, it
does not matter what your default browser is), when one clicks on
the link in Excel one gets an error dialog with the message:
Unable to open !http://<host>/trac/Ticket/171 Cannot download the
information you requested
* Using WireShark to see what it going on:
* It appears that Excel is trying to validate the page before
forwarding the link to the browser. However, when it gets the
403
error, it then refuses to forward the link to the browser.
* Reverting to the standard authentication apparently gives a 401,
which then causes Excel to prompt for the user name and password
first.
Does anyone have any suggestions on possible fix or work-around;
besides
disabling AccountManagerPlugin or enabling anonymous TICKET_VIEW?
