Question

Logged out in a few hours

As described in another thread, after the recent changes my identity was changed without my intervention and without any re login to Claudio_González, a change that had several other side effects. I saw this in all three browsers that I have easily available: Safari/Vista, Explorer/Vista and Firefox/Mac. The problem disappeared by itself in the two latter browsers, and it was difficult to solve in the first, where I finally managed to login correctly at around 12:30 today (all times local, GTM-4). However, when I used my bookmark at about 16:10 to get into this forum using Safari, I found that I had been logged out, but I was -and still am- logged if I come in using Explorer or Firefox.


I did check the Remember Me button when I finally managed to log in correctly in Safari, and my computer date shows as November 18, 2009 (not 2039). I opened and closed Safari several times in these less than four hours, coming in and out of these forums, same as I did with the other two browsers, so there has not been any 4 hour period of inactivity.


As already said, I have only been logged out in Safari. I had no difficulty in logging back in, though, and I have not been logged out again yet. I'll report again if I am.

Addition: Sorry, I had forgotten about daylight saving time, so local time is now GTM-3.

    I have been logged out again. After re logging, I closed Safari, and re opened it immediately, and I was still logged.

    Still logged in. I'm shutting off this computer for the night. More news tomorrow.

    I did notice that they mention a Firefox extension called Live HTTP Headers, which I might be able to use without much difficulties. Would the information provided by this extension be enough to investigate my logouts, assuming I get them again?

    Yes. You just need to keep it running permanently.


    OK, thank you, although I will not do anything unless I am logged out for a second time. I like to keep my systems as clean as possible.
