form based login method does not forward to main url if request not known

Reported by: arnuschky Assigned to: mgood
Priority: normal Component: AccountManagerPlugin
Severity: normal Keywords: login form based html
Cc: Trac Release: 0.11

Description

The form based login does not forward to the main page correctly upon a successful login. This happens when the original request is not known.

In my special case, the original request is never known, as I redirect unencrypted requests to the login form to a encrypted connection. On the way, the original request gets lost.

Result: The user ends up on the login screen again, even after the login was successful. Additionally, no message indicates that the login was successful.

You need to change your redirect rule to go to "https://yourserver/login?referer=<whatever>" to override the fact that currently the referrer is going to be the unencrypted /login URL. Either point it to the index page, or if you want to get fancy there may be a way to write the redirect so that it uses the original referring page.

Thanks for the fast answer, I will contact the author of the noanonymous plugin and ask for a fix.

I tried the following:

https://localhost/projects/test/trac/login?referer=report https://localhost/projects/test/trac/login?referer=projects/test/trac/report https://localhost/projects/test/trac/login?referer=https://localhost/projects/test/trac/report

But all of these do not work. The plugin always redirected me to the wiki.
