IE 7 Problem

Post by joebeazelman » Fri Nov 06, 2009 5:57 pm

It appears that I can't log into AC7 using IE 7. When I enter my credentials, it invokes the validation controls on the create new login section of the page. Is there a fix for this?

What the version and build of your AC7 install?

I've used IE7 with AC7 for over 18 months, nothing wrong with the login page. After typing your login credentials, are you specifically clicking the "Sign In" button or just pressing the <enter> key?

Some older builds of AC7 had the default submit button set to the <register> button on the login page.

Here my build information.
PLATFORM: ASP.NET
VERSION: 7.0.3
BUILD: 12458
MSSQL v2005
AC SCHEMA v2005

Actually, clicking the button causes this problem. I think the source of the problem may be that JavaScript isn't fully enabled. As a sidenote, the redirect URL from https to http doesn't work at all.

Does AC7 warn the user that JavaScript should be enabled?

Without Javascript enabled, many aspects of AC7 will not function. Enable JS on your browser and try it.

JavaScript seems to be enabled. I'm running this on Windows server 2003. I'm able to log in, but when I click on a normal HTTP:// address from an HTTPS://, I get a blank page. The following is what I get when I view the source:

<html><head><title></title><!-- <script language="javascript">window.location.replace("http://www.mysite.com/Default.aspx");</script> --></head><body></body></html>

Somehow the browser isn't able to execute window.location.replace. Any suggestions?

I think that is not AC problem, try to reinstall IE7 with default setings.
and
Check ssl settings on admin side in AC - must be enabled.
and
Check the IIS for correct setiinns of SSL.

Windows Server OS dose not make a good browser due to the server's default security level.

Thanks everyone for the help. This issue still persists, but I think its Windows Server related. The only reason I looked into this problem is that some users were complaining about blank pages. It would be nice if AC7 alerts the user about any browser incompatibilities.
