115019 - Can no longer log into any websites!!!!

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.6+) Gecko/20011212

Can no longer log into any websites!!!!

- I go to the website above and enter my ID and PW
- moz asks to remember it. I say yes.
- the *same* page is loaded asking to log in (I therefore have no access)
- The next time i load the page, moz wants my master PW (it even asks for it
TWICE), even though I had *already* entered my MPW previously in mail/news to
read my mail!!

There seem to be 2 related issues:
1. cannot log into web sites
2. Mozilla repeatedly asks for MPW, even though it had previously been entered.

This really needs to be fixed ASAP to assure Mozilla is useful enough as a
testplatform that can be used (tested) daily.

This really really sucks. :( :( :(

this seems to be a duplicate of what you just filed as bug 114895?

Comment 2

[Peter Lairo]

Well, it seems related, but it's possibly not a dupe. 

The other bug is about the master PW repeadedly being requested; this bug is
about not being able to log into web sites. I don't understand coding, so both
may have the same cause/solution, but they also may not.

adding KW "ecommerce" because I imagine this is preventing anyone from logging in
to a commerce site.

QUoting from bug 114895:

Mozilla keeps asking for master password when filling out online login forms.
What makes this unacceptable, is that the login fails

Resolving as duplicate of bug 114895. Please comment there if you have
additional information.

Removing the dup.  There are two different issues.  One is that the master 
password is being repeatedly requested.  The other is that you are unable to 
login even after entering the correct master password.

The first is covered by bug 114895 and I can confirm that behavior (I'll mark 
bug 114895 as confirmed).  The second is covered by this bug report and that I 
am unable to duplicate.

my username and password are invalid, but I can login bugzilla using 12-10 build

this works for me in 12-10-03 W2K didn't download 12-11.. works for me in
12-12-03 build (w2k) but not 12-13-13 build (w2k) with bugzilla.. so it started
regression in the 12-13-13 build..

open this up, as it is all the checkins between 12-12 spin and 12-13 build spin.

actually it doesn't work for me in build 12-12 either.. its got to be checkin
for bug 114339.. PSM actually was adding the correct password to the field and
it was 1 character more than my password which is the probably the '\n' character.

Comment 12

[[not reading bugmail]]

so one of two things.. either 
A) the new behavior is correct now after all this time.. and all of passwords on
each site have to fixed.  

or 

B) Input wants to check DB for 6 characters (5+'\n') when we input 5 (which now
strips '\n') so input 'foo'!='foo'+'\n'
