Today and yesterday when I tried to log out I received the following message:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.

What is happening?

Me too
Funny thing Colin logged me out yesterday, he said he couldnt so deleted the cookie tray but tonight I just get logged off without trying??? Have I got slow cookies?

 

[donmoore]

Me too, I have been log in since Monday!

Only remedy for slow cookies is a glass of milk.

 

[Adrian]

Why do you guys log out if you're working from private computers?

 

[Alison]

Well for us being husband and wife the laptop is a usefull means of access so we both need to be able to log in and out as we want

 

[sinkweight]

Isn't that romantic?

One day I'll find a diver-girl to share a laptop with.

Folks - I am aware of the problems. There is obviously a fundamental problem with the login/logout code on the forums but I haven't had time to investigate. I will be looking into it this Saturday.

Many Thanks

We have escalated this problem to the support department of Jelsoft - the makers of vBulletin (that runs these forums).

One question though - when did people start seeing this problem manifest itself?

 

[Alison]

A couple of days before Lucia mentioned it. Its gone the other way for me now, I cant stay logged on between sessions

 

[Stephan Whelan]

The issue is the same - something on the server isn't handling "cookies" (little text files that keep your user login info stored on your computer). It's very weird as nothing has changed on the server.

 

[Alison]

Damn! and there was me hoping the would be chocolate hobnobs hehehe. I dont know anything about bugs but I think this is a cookie monster problem

 

[Stephan Whelan]

Yea - my worry is that bizzare behaviour normally accompanies a server compromise (hack) which then costs hundreds of pounds to get fixed and lots of downtime.
