Forum login problems

I changed my forum login password, then could not log back in. I had to use forgot password to set a new password in order to log in. The next time I attempted to login, my new password would not work, and I was locked out of the system for some time for too many attempts to login.
When I finally was able to attempt login again, my new password still would not work. So, I used forgot password again to set a new password, was immediately logged in, but after logging out, I could not log back in. This has repeated over and over. When you respond to this inquiry, I will most likely have to set a new password to log in and check your response.
I was able to contact an HP representative by phone who referred me to an email address for forum issues. That email address is [email protected] - I hope it generates results.

Forum login problem

Why do I Have to login every tim I visit the forum? Is it just me? I have a slow internet connection and it's really a pain in the ass!

Hi,
I believe there is a time-out function. For instance, sometimes when I return to the forum I can press Login/Register and i'm logged in right away, other times, I have to return my details.
Let me see if I can get specifics for you!

Another user with login problems to forums

I didn't want to jump into either of these threads with "me too and..."
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=366881&tstart=0
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=366684&tstart=0
but me too and...
Whenever I come directly to the discussion boards by typing in discussions.apple.com in Safari (1.3.2) address bar OR typing support.apple.com and then clicking the discussions link (in the purple bar) I'm greeted as guest. I click login and Safari helpfully fills in the details then several things happen (no pattern found yet).
1. I'm prompted for my login again and told the user name or password was wrong. It will then accept the next autofill by Safari. Forums function normally.
2. It greets me "Welcome Marlinespike" in the sidebar and prompts me to login again. Clicking any other link (e.g. My Questions, or iTunes) takes me to the forums and I'm not prompted again. Forums function normally.
3. It greets me "Welcome Marlinespike" in the sidebar and says "you only have read (or was it guest?) privileges and presents me with a page to create an account. Ditto 2 in that I can click anywhere and bypass the "please make an account".
The problem occurs every time I navigate to the forums home. If I leave SAfari running but close all windows, it'll happen.
I don't know if this is related to recently getting Safari 1.3.2. My Safari was 1.2 until last week. This login issue has only started for me in the past week. Also, I can click a link in the forums and will get a 404 not found error, but if I refresh the page (CMD-R), I get it.

FYI, since downgrading my OS back to X.3.8 and Safari to 1.2 I've not had any login difficulties yesterday or today. Also have not had any threads "not found" to be found upon refreshing. Perhaps there's some weird java thing going on with the forum logins that affects SAfari 1.3?

Web Center app with ADF Security - login problem

I have a custome Oracle Web Center app.
I have a page.html with an embedded login form posting to j_security_check. I've configured the ADF security policies to redirect to a JSPX on successful login.
When I try the correct username/password, I get redirected not to the page I defined in ADF, but to the root page http://127.0.0.1:7101/MyApp-ViewController-context-root/
and i get
Error 403--Forbidden
I've checked the weblogic.xml as per http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2009/12/solving-error-403-forbidden-in-adf.html, all the required entries are there.
This works fine if i use a Login link with
destination="#{'/adfAuthentication?login=true&end_url=/faces/postLogin.jspx'} "
which redirects to the default login.html and then to the right page. I've copied the form from the default login.html into my master HTML page.
Hope my question is clear. Any suggestions why it is going to the wrong URL after login.
Is there anything specific I should see in the jazn-data.xml or web.xml regarding the post-login URL since i cant see that in either.
P.S. Have been advised to try here when I originally asked this in the WebCenter forum. Web Center app ADF Security - login problem
Edited by: new_to_webcenter on 18-Jan-2011 05:25

Thanks for your response Frank.
The web.xml has
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>adfAuthentication</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/adfAuthentication</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>valid-users</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/login.html</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/error.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
When configuring ADF Security via JDev , I chose "Redirect upon successful authentication" to the Welcome Page
"/faces/postLogin.jspx"
this then adds into web.xml
<servlet>
<servlet-name>adfAuthentication</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>oracle.adf.share.security.authentication.AuthenticationServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>success_url</param-name>
<param-value>/faces/postLogin.jspx</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
So the sequence which works is:
Login via the '/adfAuthentication?login=true&end_url=/faces/postLogin.jspx' and this redirects to login.html (OOTB form which posts to j_security_check) and then to the postLogin.jspx
I'm trying to do away with a Login link, and trying the simple login form embedded in my page alongwith other content.
So should the form be posting to j_security_check directly or to the adfAuthentication ?

What's causing these power-up and login problems?

I recently switched from Tiger to Leopard (installed by the repairers) and have encountered some power-up and login problems. Basically, my set up is that the computer automatically logs into a non-admin account, launches a Safari page, and then that's it - after checking the webpage, I logout of that account, into my main account, and work from there.
In Tiger :
A few times quite recently the computer would freeze, either while Safari was launching / opening the webpage, or when I tried to logout. Force Quit didn't work (total freeze) so I would force power-off and switch on again, and things would be fine.
In Leopard, one of the following has begun to happen, about two weeks after I began using it:
• The computer reaches the grey screen with an endlessly rotating gear wheel. (Power off / on again)
• The computer logs in to the account; after selecting 'Log out...' I log out, but instead of giving me the login screen, it logs straight back into that account, and this happens every time I try 'Log out...'. (Use Fast User Switching instead to reach main account, where one or two software glitches prompt a Restart) This has happened twice.
• This morning, the computer reached the blue screen where the pointer appeared - faded - appeared - faded etc endlessly (Power off / on again).
Clearly it is not the System - experiencing problems in both Tiger and Leopard proves that. Nor is it my HD - I've had a new one installed. It must therefore be a setting in my login account, though it's hard to see what : I only use that account for login, and a single launch of Safari, and it's been ok for years.
Should i create another login account and see if that solves the problem? By the way, the repairers did not give me any Leopard install disks, so please don't suggest that method of diagnosis. I only have the original Tiger disks.

2. I don't know what Apple app(s) you refer to? As I said I've upgraded all the free ones, and iLife '06 is working (and I have the disks).
Look in your Applications folder: Any Apple app there, except for the ones you've mentioned. And all the built-in parts of OSX.
3. They told me that I CAN do a full restore from a Time Machine backup (via Disk Utility apparently).
That should tell you something about the quality of their advice.
See: [Mac OS X 10.6 Help Recovering your entire system|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/15638.html].
Or the *Restoring your entire system from a backup* section, towards the bottom of [Mac 101: Time Machine|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427].
Or look up +*Time Machine+* in Mac Help.
Or #14 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
And if there's a problem with your installation of OSX (which seems likely), or the Apple apps, you can't reinstall them, either.
4. Having spent hours and hours getting the machine to work properly (upgrading Mail and sorting out Mail problems, upgrading Safari, re-upgrading iTunes and sorting out problems), I'm not prepared to spend hours and hours doing the whole thing in reverse to restore Tiger, including learning HOW to do that.
Correct; unless you have backups of the Tiger system, that's impractical at best.
So unless anyone has a reasonably simple, straightforward answer as to what this problem might be, it looks like I must live with it.
You have some sort of problem with your Mac and it's not going to get better on it's own. Most likely, it will get worse.
If you haven't, try the things recommended by Dale.
Also try running the +Apple Hardware Test.+ It's on one of the disc(s) that came with your Mac, and is tailored to it's particular hardware. The disk should have +Apple Hardware Test+ and instructions for running it printed in very tiny type.
I sympathize with your situation, but the repair shop violated the Apple license, and put you in an untenable situation. If they won't correct it by supplying the Leopard disc, you really should report them to Apple.
You need to purchase a retail copy of Leopard (not the gray discs that came with another Mac; they won't boot yours). They're not shown on the Apple Store website anymore, and eBay and other sellers get a premium for them, but AppleCare should have them for the original $129.

Login problems using safari5.1

Hi there. I’m on a macbook pro, running safari. I just updated to safari 5.1, and since then all my automatic logins have gone. Ticking the ‘keep me logged in’ box isn’t working, and I have to re-enter all the details every time. Any ideas? Cheers.

Hi asailor, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users
Forums.
Were you in S 2.0.4 prior to 2 days ago when the prob
started?
Maybe the bank was doing maintenance. What bank is
it? Maybe someone will chime in.
I was using S 2.0.4 prior to the login problem. The bank rep said it
was a Safari issue. I reported the bug to Apple. Yesterday, I was able to login and today I can't. ndbt.com is the bank's website.
Thanks for you help!

[CS4] Post login problem

Hi everybody,
I’m facing a problem I can’t solve as I’m not an expert with php : I have created a site of which first page is a login. On the second page I would like to retrieve informations from a database based on the logged on user ID. Here is the problem : I don’t know how I can insert the user ID on the SQL request (on page 2). I’ve tried to put as Run-Time value of my Recordset template $_GET[‘MM_Username’] but it does not work. Creating a session value into the bindings panel allows me to display the correct ID value (therefore MM_Username) on the HTML page but still I can’t do anything with it into my SQL request… I’m lost !
Thanks in advance for your help/advices
Best regards

During login problems, created an additional ID - how to get rid of it ?

When the forums had login problems this day,
I tried to create another apple ID.
Now, I really dont need it, since my original account is working again.
Where can I request the removal of it ?
Thank you.

I'm afraid that you cannot delete the extra identity, but no one is going to do anything with your email address that is not done with your current address
Apple doesn't mess with email addresses, and whether you have one or ten, they are equally as secure.

Hbogo login problems

How can I find someone at Verizon to help me with hbogo.com login problems? hbogo.com site says contact Verizon. I have spent more than 20 hours on the phone with Verizon support over a period of 5 weeks amd keep getting transferred to other areas and then eventually back to the original support service (if not disconnected first). hbogo.com is a service provided through Verizon. Initially I had no problem signing up and using the service. Then when I really wanted to use it while on vacation, I started received a message at logins that I had exceeded the maximum number of logins for this account - which I don't understand, since no one else is using the service or has my login info, to my knowledge.

Dear sloopy,
Are you using your verizon.net email to login? Have you attempted to reset the password? Please go to the secure link: https://www22.verizon.com/content/verizonsupport/ . Enter your Fios account Name, Address, Phone and Email. Please reply back once it has been completed. Thanks for your patience

Yahoo login problem was Verizon DSL now Verizon cellphone

I'm not even sure where to start. About February 2009 I started experiencing login issues with my Verizon Browser. For the Login the options were the Verizon.net account, my regular Yahoo account and Guest. For years I have always logged in to my regular Yahoo email. Then the problems started earlier this year where I repeated would get 'wrong password' when attempting to log in my regular Yahoo so I started to have to log in the Verizon.net account and then click over to the regular Yahoo email account (no password required and when security timed out had no issue accepting my password). Then at the end of April 2009 my hard drive crashed. I threw my hands up and decided to handle the computer problem when I returned from vacation May 17th.
We returned from Europe and I replaced my hard drive, reinstalled my computer programs, but NOT the Verizon Browser. Haven't a clue if it's a contributing factor to the next problem. Without the Login box I was no longer forced to log into Verizon.net to get to my regular Yahoo account and I no longer experienced an issue logging into my regular Yahoo email. However, then I started experiencing login issues on my cellphone. I have an LG with 'broadband' service and have accessed by Yahoo email account via my cell phone for years. It also seems that long since I've ever had to enter my username and password, however, suddenly it's required probably 8 out of 10 accesses. And it doesn't recognize my login many of those times which pretty much renders the cellphone useless since I don't make many calls. It repeatedly will give me error messages saying my username and/or password are incorrectly (AND THEY ARE NOT!). Unlike the computer, I cannot login to the Verizon.net email account as it says it has determined I have a Yahoo account and need to log in that way (it also means I can never check my Verizon.net email account via my cellphone). Often the login problem clears once I access my email via my desktop, but this is not an option when I'm traveling.
I am totally loss as to where the problem lies. Don't know if it's an extention of the same type of problem, but on my cell phone about February 2009 I started to have to ALWAYS respond to the security question when accessing my bank via the cellphone. I always check the box that I use this device to access my accounts and the only time I don't have to respond to one of the questions is if I log back into the bank site within minutes of the original login.

Please check the following page on Verizon's site:

IMac login problems on any 10.6 update

I have a 24" iMac that is 2 years old. After using snow leopard on my husband's new macbook I decided to get it for my imac. The base install of 10.6 works fine but of course it immediately wants to be updated to a new release. If I update it past the base install from the CD I get login problems.
What happens is that the desktop appears and the finder menu is at the top but the date and network status etc - everything from the top right of the menu bar is missing. The computer will not move forward. No amount of waiting or button pushing will improve the situation.
Sometimes I could log in to another account but then it would start happening on that acocunt too. I made myself a new account and it started happening on that too. Every time if I did a re-install of the base 10.6 from the CD it went back to working fine. I would have to say no to every update of 10.6 on software update. This has been going on for 6 months. I thought maybe with 10.6.4 they fixed it but it did it again.
yesterday I did a fresh install. Thinking it was caused by my old quicken 2007 or parallels (though its v 5) or something else that has some bit that starts at login I formatted the HD , installed 10.6 fresh and installed nothing but ilife 9. I downloaded the 10.6.4 update and it still happens. I logged off my account and logged back in to test and it froze again. I am at my wits end. The only thing I saved from my old profile was my mail folder. I can find nothing else to fix. Any ideas?

Do things behave better if you boot into "safe mode" by holding down a shift key while your Mac is booting?

Simultaneous login problem

Hi
I am having simultaneous login problems. In the past I have been able to sign into my skype account on both my Mac Book Pro and my Windows 7 desktop PC. However since I had to change my password I can only login into one machine at a time now. Also when I change my password on the desktop PC I can only sign into that skype / computer. Whenever I type the same account name and same exact password on my Mac Book Pro, it says it doesn't recognize my sign-in details but I am 100% sure that I typed it in exactly the same way as I did on my desktop. Another is that when I reset my password on my Mac Book those details won't work on the Desktop PC and vice-versa.
I would like to know what is the problem in this situation, I am not sure if this is an application error or a networking error where the account details are not signing in from a different IP or MAC address.
Please and thank you!

"The load balancing was already functional:"
Do you have a description how to do that?
I Would like to know how.
"so ALL traffic, not going to the LAN network and so over this interface, went out on the DMZ interface, with source IP from LAN."
If you put the VPN servers behind 1-1 NAT instead they will use the firewall as GW and the VPN clients will get at your remote sites/LAN IF you add routing definitions in VPN config what networks are reachable through VPN.
Or you keep servers as they are but also add add more routing definitions in VPN AND static routes to each server with the firewall as gw to those remote networks. Default gw will still be through the DMZ IPs though.
The problem with more than one VPN client from behind same IP address is, with your current server settings, most likely because of the client side NAT router isn't coping with the task. Your public IP VPN server(s) should mean NAT VPN problem is at the other end (customer/client network router/firewall).
If two VPN clients behind same NAT router connected to different servers at your end, "12.34.56.80" and "12.34.56.81" (both are public IPs?) respectively I believe at least two should be able to connect.
3G/4G modems isn't an option?
Maybe try bringing your own tested working portable router (ethernet/wifi maybe includes a VPN client that connect to your servers) to the customer and put it temporarily on their LAN? There are these small new 3G/WiFi routers too. Depends on wether you need to be connected to customer LAN or not.
Try other VPN solution, SSL or OpenVPN?
Use both PPTP and L2TP simultaneously (PPTP could be troubelsome if GRE/TCP 1723 passthrough is disabled)?
