[Pmwiki-users] Cookies required for upload

[Pierre Rouzeau]

Hello,
Thanks,
1/ First an important point which ahev escape me initially :
 the password loop indefinitely, but the upload is *successful*
 (at least on my machine).

2/ HTTP-based authentication don't work  for me

3/ I've tried  the session.use_trans_sid validation  but still the 
password loop

In fact on my server, the variable session.use_trans_sid is already 'on'
(i've checked with the php test program)

I've added in the config.php the line
 session_start ();
and that shows on the URL line the PHP session number.
But still, the password loop.

So, as the upload is successful, isn't it possible, as an option, to go back
to the page directly after the upload. This will drive to less trouble 
for the user.
This shall be a bit tedious to reenter password for each upload, but that is
workable.

Regards
