Unfortunatelly the above function is not working for me. Every time I close my browser (IE 6) I have to re-enter my username and password.

I also tried to allow all cookies for boincstats.com. No success.

What am I doing wrong?

I think that cookies must be enabled in order the stay logged in to work. Tried it under IE7 BETA 2 and it is working normally

I know of the problem, but I can't reproduce it (on any system, and I have a whole bunch of them).

I think it's a combination of OS, browser, AV and AS software, and maybe other stuff.

I can reproduce it. Both on my home PC and my Work PC
Both of them XP + IE 6...

Okay... Thanks anyways

I have this problem here consistently too. Even tried the debug page and mailed the debug info to you. Despite the info from the cookies being sent to and known by BAM [it displayed user# and password-hash(?) in the debug info], I was not connected.

I don't think it has anything to do with us, I have tried it on a number of windows machines with different windows versions and with and without AV programs with the same result, does not remeber me.

I will try it with firefox in the next few days when i get a moment of free time.

Just made so free time and it does not work on firefox on a win2000 machine. I think it is someting in the web pages.

Happened first time to me today. The only change I can imagine is a regular NOD32 update; Opera remains the same, no Win XP updates etc.

I still can't find any error in my code, and I haven't encountered this on any of my systems, so debugging it is difficult.

Please do the following:

*Close all your browser windows (to avoid influences from other opened windows)
*Start a browser
*Go to http://www.boincstats.com/testing/
*Copy-Paste the debug code in the main window to this thread.

OK, done.

Debug info:
ID1:109
ID2:109
Hash:1f200c5a490d964df9d3ec844132a30e
QueryELECT * FROM boincstats_ams.users WHERE id = '109' AND hash = '1f200c5a490d964df9d3ec844132a30e' AND activated = '1'
stay_logged_in:!
Logging:
Debug:1356
End of debug info

I really don't get it. You should be logged in. All checks are ok, the debug path is 100% correct.
1356, 1=start, 3=cookies found, 5=succesfull login, 6=store cookies.

What is showing in the 'BOINC Account Manager' menu?

Here with Firefox 1.5. After FF start:

Debug info:

ID1:377

ID2:

Hash:0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971

Query:

stay_logged_in:

Logging:

Debug:1

End of debug info

After login ("stay logged in" checked):

Debug info:

ID1:377

ID2:377

Hash:0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971

QueryELECT * FROM boincstats_ams.users 

WHERE id = '377' AND hash = '0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971' AND activated = '1'

stay_logged_in:!

Logging:

Debug:1356

End of debug info

Stop/start FF:

Debug info:

ID1:377

ID2:

Hash:0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971

Query:

End of debug info

Hope that helps, Norbert

Yeah, I also don't get it.
It happened only once and I can't replicate the behaviour any longer.
I've deleted all previous cookies from this site and will monitor more closely (and pay more attention to the circumstances).

Addition: Account manager menue at try 1 and 3 shows the login form.
(hmm: couldn't edit my previous post - connected?)

Norbert

I changed a check in the code, please try again (go directly to the testing page, not to the normal page first).

Testing page working now even after unload FF first:

Debug info:
ID1:377
ID2:377
Hash:0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971
QueryELECT * FROM boincstats_ams.users WHERE id = '377' AND hash = '0e9f7a7006588c5f6616a573d5773971' AND activated = '1'
stay_logged_in:!
Logging:
Debug:1356B
End of debug info

(Thanks for editing my long line)

For those wondering about the edits to posts I made: I removed some info that could possibly (but most probably not) be used for account hijacking. Safety first!

I don't know what you did Willy, but it's working for me today.

I came and was logged in.

Good work.

(or perhaps it was a chance encounter of the 16th kind and tomorrow it'll be back to the old way).

Kathryn

Even it is working for me now

Thanks Willy

And me too. Nice one Willy.

Working here as well on the two machines i have used so far
