Users that have IE browsers cannot sign into my applications but users with Firefox browsers can. This started happening after I upgraded to v6.2 and still in v 6.2.1. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! |

Hi
Can you provide some more information? Do you get an error message, what happens and what exactly does not work? Helps us to help you if you can provide step by step instructions 
You may want to double check, I had what I though was a similar problem, I would enter the username and password then press enter. In IE it would simply refresh the page. In FF it would submit and attempt to login as normal. I then discovered that If I click the OK button instead of relying on the enter key it would submit and work as expected in all browsers. So I guess my problem was that the Enter key was not hooked up to the OK button.

Tim,
The scenario is similar to yours: user enters username and password in ie and then clicks the ok button. The page refreshes without logging the user in. If the user does the exact same thing in ff, everything works fine. Thanks for the reply!

Update on Issue:
A day or two after the post, Firefox stopped working as well. I had not changed any code. As noted, this issue started when I migrated from 6.1 to 6.2 and then also from 6.2 to 6.2.1. I did a test to see if a brand new application would give me issues (since all of my migrated apps have this issue). A brand new app from scratch does not have the sign-in issue in IE or FF.
I copied the VB code from the SignIn page in the new app and copied it over to one of the migrated apps. I also checked the code behind the "ok" button on the SignIn page to make sure the code was the same as the new app. After rebuilding and running the migrated app, I still have sign in issues.
Any other ideas on how to tackle this would be appreciated!

I am still having this issue. I even started a new application from scratch based on the same database (MySQL) and have the same problem. I have not modified the security code at all. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! |

More Info: I have tested the site on IE from localhost and it works. When I move the application to the server and try using IE to access via the web, I encounter the problem. If you would like to see the issue, go to:

user: demo password: demo
works in firefox, not ie
Thanks in advance! |

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. I am trying to finish this project for a client and this is the last issue to solve. Thanks so much! |

One time I edited a button, but I accidently click on the SHARED properties instead of the button rather than just the button properties. Until I realized what I had done, I could not log in. Everytime I clicked the button, the page just refreshed. To fix it I just removed the changes to the SHARED properties. |
