2.0.14 safari login error

[benzwu]

Hi All,

Recently I upgraded my forum to 2.0.14 (plain vanilla without mods) and unable to login from safari with this error. But on the other hand this community forum works with my very same safari.

An Error Has Occurred!
Your session timed out while posting. Please go back and try again.

Firefox, Chrome and Opera can login without problem.

I tried to clear up the extentions from safari but not helping at all.

// Are you guessing with a script?
   checkSession('post');
   spamProtection('login');

the stopper is checkSession in LogInOut.php

can anyone shed some light on this?

If your custom theme has a login form such as in the index.template.php or boardindex.template.php or in the login.template.php

The SMF 2.0.14 now requires the following code added in the <form> tag  just add in the closing </form> tag in any login form.

Code Select Expand


<input type="hidden" name="', $context['session_var'], '" value="', $context['session_id'], '" />


This code is used to help increase security for SMF.

actually I use default theme. checked the source, it's with it already hence I can login using other browser but not safari.

There is a login glitch in 2.0.14 Curve, it's been reported on just a few forums, one of which I worked on.  Only way to fix it is to disable session check in load.php.  Not on my computer so can't post the code, maybe someone else can do it.
