Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/JLiscom/OpenNote/issues/115

I just found this great project today and have installed it on my server.
When I try to log in, I get the message that the credentials have been accepted but then the login screen reloads and I never get any further than that.

@bushrang3r @aprather51 ,
What browser are you using? does it work on the demo site?

Hi FoxUSA,
I was using Seamonkey (basically Firefox I think?).
After I saw your question asking which browser I'm using, I tried Opera and I can login with that although I get no wysiwyg controls when writing a note.
So here's what I've got.
Seamonkey - my own instance - reloads the Login/Register screen after login attempt
Seamonkey - demo site - 100% OK.
Opera - my own instance and demo site both behave the same - Login successful - no wysiwyg controls nor note field. Only title field.

Thanks :)

@bushrang3r can you press F12 and see if a console error is being thrown on your instance? Or post your instance url it here.

@bushrang3r It appears to be setup correctly. I can log in with chrome, and SeaMonkey and it worked.
Can you try again?

Thanks for checking :)
I tried again and I still get the loop as I described earlier.
I also disabled all browser add-ons/extensions but same result.
Also tried making a new user on my system but same results for both Seamonkey and Opera as above.
Were you able to do wysiwyg editing in both browsers on my instance?

Oops, I still have the problem of no wysiwyg toolbar nor note field when using Opera. It's working fine in Seamonkey and that's my main browser so I'm happy with that but just to let you know anyway....

No! I just discovered that the version I'm using is quite old. 12.16. Sorry, I'll do something about it.

@cavebeat commented on GitHub (Feb 4, 2015):

hi,
i am having same issue with Login Loop

latest opennote release 14.07.02
FireFox 35.0

i am able to do things, as long as the "Credentials Accepted" Toaster is available in the right bottom corner.

Edit is always possible, and save too. but selecting folder or creating a note always requires a login again.

I have the same issue using version 14.07.02 with FF 35.0.1. Installation was OK, but I can't register or log in. The "users" table in sqlite is empty and nothing is logged to the browsers' console. Fix c8916ea doesn't change that.

Update: I also tried this with a MySQL DB and the error persists, regardless of patch c8916ea being installed or not.

@FoxUSA Do we have to install OpenNoteService-PHP in order to use OpenNote?

@jniggemann No, https://github.com/FoxUSA/OpenNoteService-PHP is the github project for the backend. Maybe someday we will have more than one. For now, it is included in all binary downloads and in docker scripts.

Go it working:

  • Make change as described in #120 plus a similar change in Config.template
  • call Service/install.php, select sqlite --> white screen, reload -> "successful" message
  • register (this still works in any browser)
  • login (does not work with FF35, I only had success using Chromium V42.0.2273.0)
