Non-root users can't receive cookies. When they try to open the cookies module in the konqueror settings, they receive the following error. This control module could not start the cookie server process. It will not be possible to manage received cookies Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to login to a site like http://games.yahoo.com/ch 2. Enter your login information 3. Submit form Actual Results: You get an error message saying, The browser you're using refuses to sign in. (cookies rejected) Expected Results: A cookie should have been stored and the page should display a successfull log in. Root does not have this problem. This is newly installed box and there have been no other versions of kde installed. This bug report was allready filled on September 19th, 2003 as bug # 29083 but that bug # now contains a different bug report???
I am unable to reproduce this. Cookies work just fine for me. Do your users have the ability to write to their home directories? This owuld cause a problem. You can open up kcontrol -> KDE components -> Service Manager Can you start the KDED Cookie jar Module? It sounds more like a configuration problem or something that went wrong during compile time.
I received an error message when I clicked service manager. Something like, "Cannot start kded cookie jar module", Sorry, I lost the exact error. I restarted the computer and the problem was no longer. I had quit X and logged off/on several times but the problem would not dissapear until the computer was restarted. Thanks,
Apparently a reboot fixed it. Strange problem, though.
