189074 - Keychain access broken from 01-11-03 nightly and newer

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: OS Integration, defect)

Description

[Ian Williams]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021104 Chimera/0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021114 Chimera/0.6

I have found that on all nightly builds from January 11th and newer, I do not
have access to either store or retrieve passwords from the Keychain.  I have not
been able to reproduce this bug on the January 10th build (my currently used
version) and older.

While entering a username and password in Jan 11 and newer, the browser does not
prompt the user for storing the password.  The page loads properly once
submitted, but the username and password is not saved.

While visiting a site with a stored username and password, the stored values are
not recognized at all, and there is no indication that the Keychain access is
working.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit site that needs a username and password
2. Enter the username and pass and try to submit it. (or visit a site that has a
stored password.)
3. Note that it doesn't work for beans in either circumstance.
Actual Results:  
The storing password prompt does not come up, or if a password is stored, it is
not entered onto the page.


I am running OS X 10.2.3 on a PowerBook G3 500 MHz with 1024 MB of RAM, a 40 GB
TravelStar GN hard disk.  This bug appears to be reproducible with all sites I
visit that use a username and password.  It is not unique to the MBNA America
link I have provided.
