Task #12882 (new)

RFE: more information about login failures

Reported by: mtbcarroll Owned by: jburel
Priority: minor Milestone: Unscheduled
Component: Insight Version: 5.1.1
Keywords: n.a. Cc: ux@…
Resources: n.a. Referenced By: n.a.

Description

The error message from Insight upon login failure looks much the same whether the server is not accessible on the network at all or the user's password is wrong. Whatever can easily be distinguished from the client side, it would be great to have different-looking errors for.

Change History (6)

This would have helped me this week too with a Johns Hopkins user who couldn't log in to our demo server: it turns out that they have a firewall in the way.

Also, "accessible server but wrong major version".

comment:4 Changed 7 years ago by jburel

insight is in maintenance mode now so I don't think we will make the suggested changes

Doesn't the ticket apply equally to OMERO.importer?

comment:6 Changed 7 years ago by jburel

same code base, we are working towards moving all the functionality to web
Import will be the next target
