<m-c> Getting an "Application error." when trying to reset user password, on Launchpad.
<andrea-bs> m-c: do you get an OOPS?
<m-c> andrea-bs: The complete error is, "Application error. Unauthenticated user POSTing to page that requires authentication."
<m-c> This is immediately after completing the "Reset password" form.
<andrea-bs> m-c: this seems a browser problem, not a launchpad issue
<andrea-bs> m-c: which web browser are you using?
<m-c> Are there third-party cookies that I need to allow? I am using Firefox 3 (default with Ubuntu 8.04.1).
<andrea-bs> m-c: I've tried to reset my password wit FF3 and I get no error, can you tell me which is the exact page where you get the error, please?
<m-c> Let me try it again. The page I was repeatedly getting errors, previously was: " https://edge.launchpad.net/token/qrZdBgTtSm332KLBmD6B/+resetpassword "
<andrea-bs> m-c: this seems bug #2115, can you confirm this?
<ubottu> Launchpad bug 2115 in launchpad "POST request fails if user not authenticated (eg. launchpad restarted)" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2115
<m-c> Just tried it again, with the same results. Going to look at the bug now.
<andrea-bs> m-c: what happens deleting your cookies?
<m-c> I am not real eager to delete all my cookies...
<m-c> But for the sake of Launchpad, I will give it a try!
<andrea-bs> m-c: you can delete just the .launchpad.net cookies if you prefer
<m-c> After removing all cookies, I was able to login, thank you very much!
