Re: Browser not working

 

Hi, I can add that I have the same problem on two different servers: logging in with Chrome (or Safari) does not work, Firefox works fine. Instances are both 2.24 build. Nginx 1.4.6 are running on both servers. Both servers have other non-2.24 instances that does not have the same problem.

To add to the problem, the DHIS 2 top menu does not work in Firefox, e.g. nothing works…Not sure if that’s a general problem or not. Again, menu works in non-24 instances.

Regards
Olav
