Error description

  • When you open a new browser window and log into TRIRIGA again,
    you kill the previous session on the original logged in tab.
    This is reproduced in all browsers in Windows and Mac OS
    (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), and this is working as designed as
    signing in again closes the previous logged in sessions.
    But there is another way to open new tabs and preserve the
    logged session. In Firefox it's able to right-click in, for
    instance, the reports tab and select open in a new tab. Both
    tabs will have the same active TRIRIGA session, that is,
    the original session is preserved and you can use both tabs to
    navigate.
    When tested in Safari thou, it does not work like that. It
    should, so this was reported as a product defect target for the
    next major release 3.5.2 and FixPack 3.5.1.3
    

Local fix

  • Use a alternative browser in Mac OS.
    

Problem summary

  • This issue has been resolved by the security enhancements made
    in the 2h2016 release.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

  • Users can now open multiple tabs and have the session shared
    across them. This is targeted to the 2h2016 release.
