Help required on Authentication problem
Added by Matthias Frank over 11 years ago
Hello,
we run into a serious issue with our "old" Redmine installation. For the last 2 days every authentication fails with
Processing AccountController#login (for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at 2013-03-11 10:17:48) [POST]
Parameters: {"back_url"=>"http%3A%2F%2Fsrv2dd%3A3000%2F", "action"=>"login", "authenticity_token"=>"jhfkdsögjfsdjgfs", "username"=>"username", "controller"=>"account", "password"=>"[FILTERED]", "login"=>"Anmelden »"}
Failed login for 'maf' from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at Mon Mar 11 09:17:48 UTC 2013
Rendering template within layouts/base
Rendering account/login
Completed in 47ms (View: 0, DB: 0) | 200 OK [http://servername/login]
Before that we never had any issue with that.
Background information:
Redmine is installed on Windows 2008 R2 Server
The installation directory was never touched.
The installation '== 2011-07-11 v1.2.1' is installed (last entriy in CHANGELOG)
I can create a new user - successfully. But when I try to login is shows the same behavior.
What is the best to workaround or fix the issue? I was thinking about a fresh installation and to merge the old data into the new installation - but I'm not sure whether I run into compatibility issues with the old database and some new requirements?
Thanks for every help.
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
"login"=>"Anmelden »"}
the  is strange.. perhaps encoding issues...? Was your database converted to / from UTF-8 recently?

Good question.
Not so far I know.
- there were no big update of components
- no was no manual triggered "translate" action
- there were no settings changed with purpose
I'm a little bit concerned about external references from Redmine to ???
- is there any ref to an SVN client or server system? (an old (empty) repository were removed)
- is there any ref to the domain (the domain has changed; the old server were removed and replaced.)
What I can see is, that the complete DB is still available (24GByte), all attachments are still there. So far I'm still in hope to save the history about our old errors.
