PQ69188: UNEXPECTED LOGIN PROMPT WHEN CLICKING ON ADMIN CONSOLE. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description We set the Security timeout to 300 and the LTPA token timeout to 10mn. When the LTPA Token timeout expired, a popup window is displayed asking us to login again and a message is sent in the tracefile in order to warn us that the credential have expired. We expected this behaviour and we were happy. Then we entered the userid/password, we hit "enter". It seems that we are logged in. . Then we click on the console and we saw a new popup window asking us to login again, but this time without any messages in the tracefile. We entered the userid/password and we were able to go through the websphere topology inside the console. We don't think that prompting the second time when clicking on the console is correct. Steps taken: - wait 10mn - popup window - Login/password (msg in tracefile) and hit enter - hit somewhere in the console and you got a second popup window - Login/password (no msg in tracefile) and hit enter - wait 10mn - popup window - Login/password (msg in tracefile) and hit enter - wait 10mn - popup window - Login/password (msg in tracefile) and hit enter . By "message in tracefile", we mean JSAS0435E and CNTR0019E messages are generated.Local fix No workaround is known at this time.Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users who * * have enabled security and use the * * Administration Console with the * * Authentication Mechanism set to LTPA. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Admin Console displays unexpected * * login prompt after login. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When the LTPA Token timeout expired, a login window is displayed to login again and a message is sent in the tracefile in order to warn that the credential have expired. After username and password is entered, the console appears to be logged in. However, when the console is clicked again to access resources, another login windows is displayed.Problem conclusion This is caused by the expired credential not being cleaned properly. The expired credential is now being removed after expiration.Temporary fix avaliableComments
