Passing data to GET for login and issue viewing

web-app

Hi,

If I login to Gemini and then later on open a new IE window I'm still logged in so I can paste a url like this into the address bar:

http://myserver/issuetracker/Default.aspx?p=1&i=1234

This takes me to my issue.

But when I close all IE instances I remain logged out and cannot use this url.

So my question is:

Is it possible to provide a URL that includes the username and password as parameters like the p for project and the i for issue?

I have also tried clicking the remember me checkbox but this does not seem to retain my credentials so I have to constantly type them in again whenever I want to view an issue and I have logged out or just closed all IE instances.

Thanks

--Kingsley

There is an SSO page for this. However, "remember me" should work. Do you log out?

Can you please test on our site: http://gemini.countersoft.com ?

Hi

Whats an SSO page? I have the same problem on your test site with the remember me not working on firefox and IE.

I enter my credentials and click remember me then login - I logout and then go to the login page again and I have to enter my credentials again.

If you log out then you will not remembered! You just need to close the browser.

SSO page is a page the allows you to send a username and password for automatic logins, see our management guide: http://countersoft.com/Libraries/ProductDocumentation/GeminiManagement_Guide.sflb.ashx

Hi,

If I don't logout but I close all my IE browser instances I have to type in my credentials again and I'm not remembered.

A better use of the Remember Me functionality would be that it remembers your username and password so that even if you logout or close the browser when you come back the details are still filled in and you can just click login. At the moment I have to retype my credentials and hit login everytime I want to view an issue.

The only time I don't have to do this is if I login and then don't logout and I make sure I don't kill all of my IE instances - If I leave one open - it doesnt matter where its pointing - then when I return to gemini with a new IE instance I'm still logged in.

However because of the way I work I often close all the IE instances or just have one running at a time.So the remember me is not working for me at all.

Also I can't find the SSO setting in the admin section as described by the pdf you specified above. When I login and goto the main menu System Admin - there is no security related screen there - just error log and issue related management links. There is also a Security Schemes and User Security options on the main menu but these don't seem to have anything related to sso.

Could it be that the version we are using Gemini 2.0.5 does not support the SSO functionality? I tried hitting the http://myserver/IssueTracker/SSO.aspx?U=myuser&P=mypass - but I just get redirected back to login page with a returnUrl in the address bar like this:

http://myserver/IssueTracker/Default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fIssueTracker%2fMain.aspx%3fU%3myuser%26P%3dmypass&U=myuser&P=mypass

Any Ideas?

Actually after a bit more digging -> if I don't log out and close all the browsers and reopen the browser Im still logged in.

But I would like the SSO stuff to work

Please check your SSO settings in the web.config file.
