863354 - Mozilla Firefox 20 internal conflict with Yahoo Groups and Yahoo Mail...says session has expired though it is set for 2 weeks....does this every hour.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Lawrence Rayburn]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0
Build ID: 20130409194949

Steps to reproduce:

After going to Yahoo Everything in the Firefox 20 browser, I can log into YahooGroups
and YahooMail fine....but every hour  after sitting idle, Yahoo Mail says my session
has expired and I must log in again. I have Yahoo login set for every 2 weeks.     


Actual results:

Yahoo Mail says after sitting idle for about an hour, that my session has expired and I must log in again.   I either log in again or go to Yahoo Everything and reload YahooMail.  


Expected results:

Firefox 20 is supposed to be specifically enhanced for compatibility with Yahoo.  So
calling up YahooGroups and YahooMail should be seamless and no re-login should be
required.

Just cancel this bug report. It has sat here for a year with no resolution.  Still have occasional problems with logging into Yahoogroups due to Mozilla Firefox 20....but expect no resolution.  I can deal with it.
