[EP-tech] Re: Mozilla Firefox/Waterfox Login Issue

[Tim Brody]

Hi,

I don't think the LDAP is going to be a problem here.

Can you try clearing all of your cache/cookies in Firefox and see if
that allows you to log-in correctly?

In recent 3.3's, EPrints sets two cookies (http and https), which are
stored in the loginticket table. By default the login is tied to your IP
address (so accessing EPrints behind a proxy pool can cause problems).
Between the browser cookies and the database entries you need to work
out what isn't being set correctly.

All the best,
Tim.
