We have a choice.

It's Mozilla or Lithium or a combination of the two.

We await v47 and see what transpires.

FF accept they have a bug.  Do you believe there are other issues as well?

Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

As far as I'm concerned it not FF46 as I don't use it. It's a Lithium bug, no doubt about it in my mind!

It's probably a combination of things.

Re: Authentication error on community - are you affected?

Just got the authentication error when attempting to thank a post in the thread here:

auth-error.JPG

Had to refresh the page before it would work.

The window had been sat idle for a while and it's likely I'll have been browsing Community in other tabs.

Windows 8/Firefox 42.

Re: Authentication error on community - are you affected?

Thanks @bobpullen going back and forth with Lithium on this. I'll send this to them and also send you on their response for a scan.

Re: Authentication error on community - are you affected?

Afternoon

I know this isn't the answer you are all waiting to hear i.e. this is now fixed.....however, Lithium have now been able to replicate the issue and have passed to the development team who will investigate further and come up with a fix. As Lithium were previously having issues replicating this, I feel we've defo moved on a stage.

Once I have an update, I'll post this for you.

Cheers

 A cynical observer might suggest that it is a bit of a coincidence that Lithium have today been able to reproduce the reported authentication issues (which they were blaming on Firefox v46), when tomorrow the official release of Firefox v47 is allegedly going to solve all their problems !
