38992 - My Yahoo! does not show the personalized page when you sign in

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 40477

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Adam Lock]

Go to My Yahoo! and assuming you have no session cookie for the site to show a 
personalized page you will be presented with the "guest" page.

Create an account or use an existing account and sign in using the "Sign in to 
Yahoo!" box on the left of the guest page.

When you sign in the page should reload with the personalized settings but it 
does not. Instead you still stay on the guest page. If you retype the 
my.yahoo.com URL into the address bar and load it then you do get the 
personalized page.

I am seeing this also, on a fresh pull from today (5/22) and from the 5/22 
daily. 

On the console I get the error:
  Error loading URL http://login.yahoo.com/config/login

Interestingly, I can login OK from this login screen:
http://edit.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=my&.done=http://my.yahoo.com/&lg=&partne
r=&.intl=

but not from the Guest login screen... Also, I extracted the login form from the 
Guest Login screen and it works fine too. Finally, I downloaded the page and it 
works fine from the downloaded copy... My guess is that this is a networking 
problem.
