OMV asks for login each time

  • Hey, I have an issue with a clean OMV6 installation. Whenever I open a new browser/new tab, OMV asks for credentials to login.


    E.g - Open browser, nagivate to OMV, login, open a new tab, navigate to OMV - it will ask for credentials even though the previous tab is still connected and works with no issues.


    I thought it's an issue with my OMV6 but I just installed OMV6 using the installation script on a clean raspbian system and it still happens, starting to wonder if this might be a bug with the latest version or something? Or perhaps that's the expected behavior? (I didn't remember that it was like this)


    Possibly cookies/session storage/local storage issues?

    Not really sure and really confused, would love to get some input.


    Thanks.

  • Mine works the same way. I'd be surprised it wasn't the same experience for everyone.

    Do you remember if it always behaved like this? I think that I remembered it working in the past, but maybe I'm just dreaming...

  • Not sure if it ever worked any differently. I have tried on and off for years to have it just automatically log me in, but no luck.

  • The closest I have gotten is having the browser already know the username and password and filling those in for me. I still have to press the Login button.

  • Your best bet might be to disable the lockout timer, and it might stop logging you out. I recently did it, and even when tabbing over to another browser, it doesn't log me out.

    I already tried that tbh. So for you it does work properly as I thought it should?

  • Auth data is now stored in the browser session storage instead of locale storage. This has the consequence that a new tab can not access the session data of another tab. This has been done because of security.

    When did this change happen? I started to think I'm going mad ?(

    Is there any way to change this behavior though?


    Thanks :)
