Description

On the Desktop edition on Windows XP I can see the wiki fine. I can create a new user and login and everything is fine. However, if I then click a link after logging in - my login info goes away and the wiki is as if I never logged in.

Steps to reproduce

  1. download desktop version
  2. double click wikiserver.py
  3. open browser and go to wiki
  4. create user
  5. login
  6. click any link

Component selection

some cacheing - there was a related error before with desktop version:

However, this is slightly different. I can login fine, its just that when I click a link you're no longer logged in.

Sorry, I believe a security program I had running was blocking particular activities with cookies.

Why do you think your problem is related to caching?

A: I was wrong, but because that was the issue with the similar bug above and the login information didn't seem to be being "cached". Probably my conflation of cookie and cacheing issues.

Do you have some traceback (see cmd window), error messages, etc.?

Can you please delete all moin cookies for 127.0.0.1/localhost and try logging in again?

Or do you have cookies disabled?

What filesystem do you use for moin's data_dir (on what filesystem do you run moin)?

A: NTFS
