External Authentication

[stm999999999]

- Has the problem happened since March 2?

as I remember: no - and all mails in the last days are ok.

- Did you have any installation problems that might have caused an issue?

no, all updates work fine on this server

- Have you made any changes since it last happened?
change file permissions?
change file ownership?
any changes at all to the site or server?

no - as I can say it: the only thing: There was a mysql-breakdown on March 1.

- Whats the datestamp of the serendipity snapshot you used when this problem last occurred?

Sorry, I make an update some day later.

Have another patch:
http://www.cdatazone.org/files/seren-au ... .patch.txt

Ran into this while testing OpenID that returns to an https page. For some reason the HTTP_HOST gets set with the port number appended which in turn causes Firefox to ignore setting the cookie (IE works correctly). Patch simply removes any trailing port number in the host when setting secure cookies - maybe best to remove in all cases, but I leave that decision up to you - so cookie gets set properly.

Also moves the baseURL detection logic up so baseURL can be properly used in the auth plugins.
