Re: Browser not working

 

Dear Bob,
I am having this same issue to with Chrome. After entering the log in credentials, it opens a page with API data and does not log in. If I am lucky and have a data entry page open, then I can log in at the prompt and that works. 
Our instance is set to load the dashboard as the opening page.

Have to keep struggling with it till it eventually logs in. 

Thanks

Hi Emmanuel

I am following up on a separate thread. I'll copy you into that.

I see it is a problem, seemingly related to chrome mishandling the
JSESSIONID cookie so even though the credentials are tested and dhis2
logs a successful authentication, the browser cookie doesn't match the
session id in dhis and so you don't get in. I am really not sure why
What I also don't know is what might have changed to cause this to
happen. I am assuming you didn't just wake up one morning and this
started to happen. There has been some change to nginx configuration
or dhis2 upgrade or something similar.
