Web (microB) no longer logs directly into sites
 

I'm no longer able to log directly into e.g. Facebook, twitter, or Maemo.org. I now get the login page. I'm not sure what I changed. Lately I've installed TweakFlashPlugin and LiveWallpaper. The only "Dev" apps (I think) I have installed are AbiWord, Gnumeric, and Stellarium.

Any idea what I've messed up? Every time I log in I check the "remember me" box, but it doesn't seem to help. In the browser "Enable Password Saving" is checked and Accept Cookies is set to Always.


Thanks,

Same here!

Anyone is able to help?
It is really such a pain in the ***. For me the pasword is memorized but every time I enter those sites I have to login myself again. Please, smarter guys, help us!
THANKS !

Same here. I am little puzzled why, because I do not think any components related have been updated lately to change this.

But, microb still remembers the passwords on some sites if I first give a wrong user or/and password and the site redirects me a page which is simplier and asks user+password again.

some of you guys noticed that this is something recent? for me is for about 2-3 days... I still wayting another feedbacks... Maybe a solution? How to reinstall the browser? Maybe this will help!

I've had this many times in the past, specially with Facebook, kept telling me I'd changed my password and do I remember doing it. It's normally sorted itself out within a day or two.
But MicroB does go round the tank once in a while for me, not sure why, but I'm guessing it's probably dodgy cookies or a corrupt file in the browser history or cache.

Try clearing all your private data but leave Saved passwords unchecked.

How to reinstal from Xterm the browser? Can anyone write the commands?

Any answers to our problems? please!

I had the same issue. I fixed it by going to root and doing an mv on the .mozilla/microb subdirectory to microbBackup. The browser recreated the directory again... appears to be a bug of some sort.

Does this "lose" any data? Are bookmarks etc. maintained?

Any suggestion for an "end user" set of instructions? {e.g. where is .mozilla?}

Hi!
Please provide the exact steps!
What are the commands? What exactly to do?
Thanks!

EDIT: Solved! I deleted all the content of /home/user/.mozilla/microb.

Now it works!

I had to redo the passwords but still have all my bookmarks

I had the same problem.
However, using the FileBox app (enabling the option to view hidden Files and Folders), I accessed .../mozilla/microb and discovered a file called LOCK that showed "broken symlink" .I deleted this file and in doing so, for me, fixed the issue..:)
