Session lost after clicking attachment link

Post by jrsanche »

Hi,

One of our users has the following problem: after clicking an attachment link in the ticket view he is asked to enter his OTRS username/password again, as if the session was lost. He has to do the same for each attachment in the ticket. But if he tries in a colleague's computer it works fine, so it seems a browser configuration issue.

I have checked Firefox cookie configuration in his computer and it accepts cookies and even third-party ones.

I have searched in the forums but I haven't found any similar problem.

Does anyone know if there is any other configuration item that I should check?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Juan Ramón

Support for version less than 3.3 will be minimal. At least upgrade to 3.x.latest, but if you're going that far, consider 3.x -> 3.x+1.latest ->3.x+2.latest -> 3.3.latest->4.x.latest

Hi Crythias,

Thanks for your answer. Yes, we are upgrading to 4.x in a few months.

However, in this particular problem I think it's not an OTRS issue, but a browser configuration one (as this problem doesn't happen in other computers) that finishes the session when clicking on an attachment link. I was wondering if anyone has had a similar problem or could help me find the configuration item that I should check.

Best regards,

I've been reproducing the problem with the user, and the system logs don't show any error. I can see the two lines of the log with "authentication ok" (first time log and the log after clicking the attachment) but no error between them.

Thanks,
