Bram,
Thanks for the follow up. (I realized I did not CC the list on my prior
reply).
I am using XMLUI.
The ticket you shared with me pointed me
to org.dspace.app.xmlui.utils.AuthenticationUtil.
Looking at that class, it seems that the following session variables
control the behavior that I am describing.
- dspace.request.resume
- dspace.request.interrupted
It appears that these variables are only reset once the resume action has
taken place.
In order to resolve my issue, I would need to find some mechanism to clear
these variables if a user navigates away from the authentication page
without logging into the system.
I presume that this would not be a trivial change.
My hope is that most users will complete the login and will not witness the
behavior that I described. I may be encountering this scenario frequently
because of the testing that I am currently performing.
Terry
