passwords

Post by racfish » Thu Oct 07, 2010 6:27 am

Whats up with changing passwords so much. I really detest having to login all the time. It used to be login one time. Lately Ive had to come on the site with error messages saying that my passwords are invalid. ???

We made a hardware change a week or so ago that required an encryption key change, which caused some peoples cookies to become invalid. I'm not sure what problems you're having right now... once you get yourself logged back in you shouldn't have to do it again.

I hope that isn't what screwed up my other computer - 1 week ago today or yesterday, I forget. Now it has to go to the shop to get fixed, which won't be affordable until March when I get my tax refund, and I'm on this SLOOOW THING. And I had to resign-in today for some reason. That happens now and then anyway, I have no idea way.

I've been having issues of not being able to log-in from my work computer for the past 2 weeks. I just deleted all my cookies and temp files, now I'm able to log-in...haven't a clue as to what caused this, but it appears fixed for now. :eye:

AMX: A change on our end is not capable of messing up your computer.

mav: That happens to be the ultimate fix for 99.9% of our users. Delete cookies and login again. It puts down a new cookie using the new encryption key and everything should be back to normal.

for the past three days I have to log in every time...not really a problem, more of an inconveince than anything.

Site is running great other than that, thank you for you hard work you admin guys do for us fisherman.
