1198702 - MozReview sometimes logs me out without telling me

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 993233

(MozReview Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Kartikaya Gupta (email:[e-mail])]

I sometimes run into a problem with MozReview where I'm trying to publish a review but it just shows a spinner for a while and then does nothing. This usually happens when I come to MozReview after a while of not having used it. I'm pretty sure this happens because MozReview logs me or otherwise invalidates my session but doesn't tell me (i.e. according to the UI I'm still logged in). Logging out and then logging back in usually fixes this problem.

This is typically caused by your Bugzilla login expiring which isn't picked up by MozReview until you perform an action which requires writing data to Bugzilla, such as publishing a review.

Work in Bug 993233 to switch to using Bugzilla API keys rather than cookies should fix this problem. We're anticipating deploying this change this week.
