[jira] Created: (MRM-728) After successful admin login archiva reacts as if user is guest

After successful admin login archiva reacts as if user is guest
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MRM-728
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-728
             Project: Archiva
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
         Environment: linux
            Reporter: Robin Roos


I ran Archiva on my windows box and, after configuring the admin user, I was able to login.  The header of the web page identified me as Administrator (admin) and I could see all the expected functions on the left hand frame.  So far so good.

I had Archiva installed on a linux box and started.  I surfed to the box from Windows and configured the admin user.  But when I logged in as admin I got a page with only Search/FindArtifact/Browse functions.  The header page reads "Login - Register".  It is as if I am not logged in and am seeing the guest functions.  Note that if I log in with a deliberately incorrect password then I get an error message as expected.  But logging in with the right credentials appears to fail silently.

As a result I cannot deploy any artifacts into Archiva, I cannot roll out the maven/subversion/archiva based edition of our in-house project, and I fear my time is limited!

Robin Roos commented on MRM-728:
--------------------------------

I changed the security policy on IE to accept all cookies regardless of  their "compact privicy policy".  IE still exhibits the problem - after successful login the user is treated as guest and shown only three functions.

--------------------------------------------------------

My browser is IE version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.070227-2254 which I take to mean "IE 6.0 SP 2".

The bank does not permit Firefox (which intrigues me, as I see Firefox as less of a risk than IE !).

The logs (archiva.log) did not show anything when I signed on "successfully" but did have messages that indicated "unsuccessful login" (at which point I got to the unsuccessful login page).

n the successful login scenario the archiva.log has no additional entries and I am directed back to the opening page with only three available functions.

The server is given as:

uname -a
Linux <hostname> 2.6.18-8.el5 #1 SMP Fri Jan 26 14:15:14 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

-------------------------------------

I am facing exactly the same issue. 

Archiva 1.0.1 on Tomcat 6.x RedHat Linux. 

Once i login, I get only the page with only Search/FindArtifact/Browse functions.

This issue is reproducable only if I use IE7 as the browser. When I try to login with FireFox everything is fine.

Was not able to reproduce this in windows with exactly the same setup/installation instrucations.

Thanks

This problem IS NOT exhibited by Firefox 2.0.0.12 (and possibly other Firefox versions). 

This problem IS exhibited by IE 6 sp 2, Opera 9.26 and Safari (not sure which version).

----------------------------------

There are two things to investigate:
- was there anything in the logs or anything additional in the URL when the login appeared to work but didn't?
- what browser is in use? Could there be a cookie issue here?

Thanks!

Robin Roos commented on MRM-728:
--------------------------------

I double-checked the URLs used.

The only difference is the hostname.  For the Windows server which accepts my admin credentials and give me all administrative  functions the hostname is localhost:8080.  For the Linux server, which silently fails on giving the correct admin password, the hostname is <hostname>:9100.  The rest of the URLs are the same.

Robin Roos commented on MRM-728:
--------------------------------

I've installed continuum-1.0-SNAPSHOT on the same server at port 9200.

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem, which is not too surprising.

I've tried "short" admin passwords just in case something was getting truncated, but with no joy.

I can connect to Archiva and Continuum instances on the same server, but since I cannot log in to them as "admin" I am unable to configure them for use.

Any and all ideas welcome.

--------------------------------------

Hmm, it worked for me in IE6. The IE6 version I was using was 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_qfe.070227-2300. In both tests, I was using the standalone Archiva 1.0.1.  The java version installed in the linux machine where Archiva is installed is java 1.5.0_11.

Btw, you could set the log level to DEBUG in apps/archiva/webapp/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml.

Any further update on this?  My developers are having to use FireFox (which itslef is no bad thing) in violation of a corporate policy to use only IE.

-------------------------------------

I deployed continuum into the same tomcat instance and even this web application has the same issue. works with firefox and not with IE7

I will try and use ethreal or other tcp analyser and see the difference in the content exchanged on the wire between browser and server for firefox and ie.

--------------------------------

For reference, I am using Archiva stand-alone (Jetty-based).  Arun notes above that he has seen this problem with Tomcat.  So it would seem not to be appserver-dependent.  I have shown it is not browser-dependent.  Could it be OS/JDK-specific?  I'm on a 64-bit Linux version using /jdk1.5.0_15.

I tried this out with IE7 and I was able to login as admin with the correct functions displayed. I was running Archiva 1.0.1 in Ubuntu Linux 7.04, and tried to access it in a Windows machine using IE7 and was not able to replicate this problem. I'll try with IE6 next.

--------------------------------

Hi Maria.  I turned on debug, stopped/started Archiva and performed the login attempt as Admin with the correct password.  I attach an extract from the log file concerning the login attempt.  It would appear that I have a cookie problem:

94702 [SocketListener0-0] DEBUG org.codehaus.plexus.redback.xwork.util.AutoLoginCookies:default  - Remember Me Cookie Not Found: rbkRememberMe
94702 [SocketListener0-0] DEBUG org.codehaus.plexus.redback.xwork.util.AutoLoginCookies:default  - Single Sign On Cookie Not Found: rbkSignon

Kind regards, Robin.

--------------------------------

Just cheked with Opera again - it is receiving one cookie from Archiva and storing it.  The server is "<hostname>.local" and the cookie name is "JSESSIONID".  Interestingly Opera shows the expiry date as being "1970-01-01 00:00:00"; since that is the epoch I presume this means "never".

Is there anything else I can check on my side?

I'm really keen to get this resolved....

[jira] Commented: (MRM-728) After successful admin login archiva reacts as if user is guest

Posted by "Robin Roos (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-728?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_126694 ] 

Robin Roos commented on MRM-728:
--------------------------------

I've now repeated the exercise with the Opera browser, so this is not an IE-specific issue.

In the process I've recorded the archiva.log.  I've annotated the log with the specific actions I took at various times, each preceded with # for readability.  The total log is only 44 lines long.  

A few specific points:

1. The port I'm using for Archiva on Linux is 9100 (since 8080 was in use). but I used 8080 on Windows.  Could this indicate why authentication failse?  Are there multiple places where I ought to set 9100?

2. The log only shows INFO WARN and ERROR levels.  Can I invoke DEBUG?  I saw no way to configure the logging via the XML files in conf/ 

3. The first entry in the log is an ascending number.  I'm seeing huge leaps in its value.  Perhaps its time-based so I need not be concerned, but if it is a log message id of some sort then something is putting out huge numbers of log messages on a suppressed channel.  I point this out in case its useful, although it probably has no significance.

Finally I will happily run a new version to chase the error, run with DEBUG enabled, or do anything else which might help to resolve this issue.  Clearly I am not the only user struggling with this.

Many thanks, Robin.
