Subject: Sign In bug

>> Eternal War
Help save humanity! Join the epic war against the invading Vallcry!

I am a proud user of correct spelling and grammar.

It seems that every time I log in now, the Sign In button will not work. Here's what happens:

1. I click Sign In at the top of the homepage.
2. I enter my password.
3. The website kicks me back to the homepage and I am not signed in.
4. I repeat steps 1 & 2.
5. The website signs me in***

***Today, I had to repeat steps 1 & 2 four times before it would let me sign in.


What is going on, is it just me, or is there a glitch?

Maybe you've been putting in the wrong password?

I don't know. I haven't signed out or in in about a week. lol

It happens to me all the time. Try deleting your cookies/cache. Also, if you choose the "Remember my password and email" or the "remember my email" options, click off of them. They seem to be a part of this bug sometimes.

A few days ago, I pressed the log in button about 20 times with no results. I eventually just started my computer and that fixed whatever was wrong. If you ever have that problem, do as I did. Of course, remember to delete your cookies/cache again first.

Alright, thanks evilcam.

Glad to see I'm not seeing things... :)

I'm using the latest version of FireFox and it happens to me every time. I don't save my email or password, so it's not that. And I have FireFox clear my cache every time I close it.

My laptop does it to me, everytime i log in :P it always helps to clear your cache, and mabye update your web browser (as in get firefox)

Same problem here. It signs me in the second time without re-asking for my password. I've always had mine set to 'Remember my email' on this computer and it has only recently started to happen. I wonder if this could have something to do with how quickly the new site reacts with the Passport Network. Maybe there's a delay or something.

It happens to me sometimes. Just keep trying, it will eventually sign you in.

  • 06.16.2007 7:07 PM PDT

Don't send me group invites.

Sometimes it does that for me, but all I do is refresh the page and I'm signed in.

I work here: Sound Devices, LLC. We make bad-ass field audio gear, and you think that's awesome. My messy desk (With work-related items on the computer screen).

One does not simply grenade jump into Mordor...

I'm using the latest version of FF at work, and the latest version of IceWeasel (FF) at home, and this has only started happening to me in the last few days. I have to do it twice most of the time, and never more than 3 times.

I have a similar kind of problem. I log in, than it shows I'm not logged in at all. I hit the sign in button again, and I'm logged in.

Funny, same exact problem happened to me a few days ago.

For me, I'll be on the site and suddenly it'll say I'm signed off. I just hit the "sign in" button and I'm back in. Not that much of a problem, but it is kinda annoying sometimes.

Probably just the site being buggy. Perhaps the webteam is working on it.

"I have no words that would do justice to the atrocities you commit to the English language, as well as your continued assaults on the concepts of basic literacy and logical reasoning."

There are two things going on here. First, there was a bug a while ago with a corrupted cookie being sometimes left around for certain people (who had "remember my password" checked) that prevented them from ever logging in. So, a change was made a while ago for the system to stop doing what's called a "silent reauthentication" of your cookies - this means that coming to the page, the master passport cookies don't "stick" if the system has to clear out bad ones first. It isn't really a solution, more of a workaround, but it is better than the alternative.

There is another bug, though, that makes this problem appear worse. You see, there are two cookies that get set for Passport to work. But, a web browser has a limit per domain of cookies that it can use, and bungie.net comes really close to this limit. There is a bug with the forum's polls that cause extra cookies to be created that exceed this limit. Most browsers remove older cookies silently when this happens, and if one of the Passport cookies is picked, you appear to become logged out. Of course, you aren't - the master live.com server still thinks you're logged in, so you hit sign in and it doesn't even ask for your password. It is on the list of things to fix. If you want to avoid it... don't vote in polls, or at least, don't vote in too many of them.

Achronos, what about if the second bug happens, even if we do not vote in polls? As many know, I don't even vote in my own polls let alone others, yet, I still experience this bug time and time again. Not as often as others, but fairly often none the less.

  • 06.18.2007 3:39 PM PDT

I barely vote in polls, and I always have to try twice to sign in - the first click does nothing - the second brings me in (password saved)
