logging me out


Dodgyknees

Question

The site logs me out, but also it has trouble loading. When it does load I am not logged in and can't log in!

I've deleted cache, reinstalled chrome.

This is on Xperia Z1, Chrome. WiFi and network.

In order to load the page I have to shut all pages on browser. No issues with any other site.

I found myself logged out today. Found it strange, but see other than me has experienced the same thing. Firefox.

The login cookie does expire if you don't use the site in a certain time period. I can't remember off the top of my head what this is though - it might be as little as 24 hours. Many people install cookie management tools which might do the same.

 

In case it's symptomatic of a bigger problem, can you tell us the OS you were using?

OS X Yosemite. I found it strange, as I am pretty sure I was on here last night and getting game info.

Before my Mac became a literal doorstop it used to just do this sometimes with all kinds of sites (this is years ago). I assumed there was some equivalent of tmpreaper clearing out temporary files including cookies. It wasn't worth trying to fix.

It is not a big issue for me, just accidentally saw this thread and thought it was a general issue. No worrries.

I've been getting logged out randomly the past couple of days, both on my Mac and iPhone. Also constantly get the 'This site uses cookies bar at the top'.

 

Cleared cache, deleted cookies etc, still happening.

Which browser? Which OS? Does it happen with another browser? Does it happen with a different network connection?

 

If you click the VT icon in the top right and then accept the cookies message it will accept it for the whole site. You'll have to do it again after clearing your cookies though.

Firefox, OSX 10.10.4, Yes - iPhone Safari, Haven't checked.

 

Cookies notice seems to be fine for a day or so, then comes back. I've done what you suggested, i'll keep you posted.

Thanks

Sorry, can't parse that. Which browsers have you tried on OSX? Which browsers have you tried on your iphone?

 

You're the only reporter of this in over a month, so at the moment I suspect it's something unique to you or your connection. Please try connecting to the internet another way. Can you turn off wifi on your phone?

Hey Limpid,

 

It's hard to replicate as it just seems to be a random logout whilst i am 'away' from the site.

 

For my laptop i'm on OSX Yosemite using the lastest version of Firefox.

 

For my iPhone, i'm using mobile Safari on the latest iOS.

 

Both my browsers on both devices have experienced the logout problem, maybe 7 or 8 times in the past couple of days.

 

I changed my password on the site just before this all started, if that helps at all?

Nothing has changed at the server end. There are no patches planned until we move to the new version.

 

Something  common to both devices is likely to have been causing this. Usually I'd suspect the network, but you tried another network and it still happened. What else are you running on both devices? A VPN?
