This was reported by a myportfolio administrator (v1.5)
we have a small issue when transferring from moodle through to myportfolio.
For me the issue only appears for me on a PC with internet explorer 9 but works fine with chrome and firefox.
When I try to click on the myportfolio link in moodle I get an error page like this
Sorry could not log tou in
Looking at the source of this error page I can see this
<script type="text/javascript">var strings = {"namedfieldempty":"The required field \"%s\" is empty","processing":"Processing","unknownerror":"An unknown error occurred (0x20f91a0)","loading":"Loading ...","showtags":"Show my tags","unreadmessages":"unread messages","unreadmessage":"unread message","couldnotgethelp":"An error occurred trying to retrieve the help page","password":"Password","username":"Username","login":"Login","sessiontimedout":"Your session has timed out, please enter your login details to continue","loginfailed":"You have not provided the correct credentials to log in. Please check your username and password are correct.","home":"Home","youhavenottaggedanythingyet":"You have not tagged anything yet"};
Sam McNeill has also been having trouble with the same link though he is on a mac and sees an error on chrome, safari and firefox. His error page looks different but has a similar error in the source for the error page

Would you have any ideas on where these errors might be coming from and how we might resolve them?
Hi Craig,
Those are just a bunch of translated strings that I think are included for javascript on every page (error or no error). They're unrelated to your mnet problem.
The "Sorry, could not log you in" error is often due to mnet misconfiguration, or sometimes due to expired host keys, so you could try regenerating the keys and see if that fixes it. But the exact cause will be in the webserver error log at the time the error occurred.
Very strange that the mnet error would occur in some browsers but not others though, I don't think I've come across that before.
