Fixed - TDN Often Can't Log In

by Unk · in Site Feedback · 11/29/2005 (4:40 pm) · 9 replies

Hey guys,

Sorry if this is a known issue but has anyone else noticed issues with logging into TDN?

I often follow a link to a page on TDN. This brings me to the TDN login page even though I am already logged into the main GG site. For now this is expected really.

The issue is that when I click on the login link and it tries to auto-log me in I often get dumped back out to the main GG site vs. either being let into the TDN site or reverted back to the login page with an error.

I don't have a 100% repro yet but it *may* have to do with following TDN links from outside TDN vs. navigating directly to the TDN page. Need to wait until I get home to verify.

Ok... I did some testing but wasn't able to find a repro on my end. Will try to bang on it more over the weekend if the issue keeps popping up.

TDN seems to be actually working for me now when I tried it, so fingers crossed this isn't just a coincidence :)

I might buy TSE today if it keeps up. Although the whole no Opera support (hopefully just temporarily) threw me back a bit.

Now when it tell's me to login, and I click the login button on the top right.
it just loads an empty page.

I got that at first, but then it disappeared and didn't happen again. I presumed Rick was tinkering in the background, but perhaps not. The url for the blank page had a ?reply in it if I remember rightly.

Just worked 1 out of 1 times for me.
firefox 1.5 winXP.

- by 'worked' i mean it still required me to login to TDN even though i was already logged in to GG.com,
but the TDN login worked on the first try.

It should ask you to login, but you should be able to login.

Hey guys,

I tried to follow a link to a thread on TDN and was brought to the login page. When I clicked on the login link in the main body of the page I was brought to a blank page. Clicking on the login link in the top right of the page by my account works fine.

Note: When I followed the link to TDN I was already logged into the main GG site... don't know if that matters.
