I don't understand. s9y works fine with two-level domains, I use it on garv.in with no problems...

Well, I just tried again, and it still fails on my site (PHP 4.4.9)
- under not yet fully explored situations.

I will report to the bug / developer blog when I found out the exact reason and ...

Confirmed, this was a two level domain problem.

So I have set the three-level domain www.progruen-pb.de under settings as home, and disabled the automatic host discovery.

This seems to be caused because I used a two-level domain (progruen-pb.de) instead of a three level domain; see also

Currently I am checking this.

I have a problem that seems for me to be the same origin:

If I logged in as e.g. the admin user, logged out, and tried to log in as another user (e.g. with less privileges, or to help someone) I get logged in again as the previous admin user.

The cookies for Session and author etc still exist ...

Aha, but the column 'inactive' does not show up from unknown reason, so I cannot make a sidebar entry inactive when drag-and-drop is choosen.

Might be too complicated to have both coexist. And, having the option on the page itself would be clearer (where else is it used?)

Garvin, the speed and ...

If Enable advanced JS usage is disabled in the user options, there are two dropdowns for each plugin, one for the author selection, and the other one for the placement (or disabling).

If adanvced JS is enabled , the second dropdown has gone.

The other way round I would have considered it as a ...

Hi Garvin,

yes, the patch works fine.

Should learn to use CVS versions...

Best,

Using live http headers, I could see that the cookies were never set, because I used a local server in the same domain without domain dots:
http://server/serendipity/...
instead of a fully qualified domain name , FQDN:
http://server.my.domain.de/serendipity/...

Apparently 1.2 uses not only the ...

Just installed a fresh xubuntu-6.10 on a (virtual) machine, and could reproduce the effect. System like the one above.

Well, we are gettin closer. I found the session save path, deleted all sessions information, logged in, and the session info was:

SERVER_GENERATED_SID|b:1;no_smarty|N;serendipityLanguage|s:2:"de";author_token|s
:40:"4d624d9d755a50e0acf54a7a4baf80d3b5d2b499";serendipityUser|s:9:"webmaster";s ...

Hi Garvin,

no, removing cookies does not help. Tried with IE and Firefox.

Only one cookie, PHPSESSID, is created, and this works also for the
1.1 installation, which is howver no longer clean, as I installed 1.2 over it and than un-tared 1.1 again to have a working system

Is there any trace ...

On a freshly installed 1.2 beta1, I cannot administrate the blog. The login with the given userid/password is accepted, the admin blog is displayed, with the correct admin username. However, whenever I want to acces any of the admin functions, the login screen comes again. German language selected ...
