Crew Mgr requires me to login far more frequently than any other browser based application, other than my checking account that forces a login on every visit.
PC, Android Phone, Laptop. All three. I have not figured out the pattern to provide any more detail.
I wonder if there is any way to at least remember my login, so I only have to remember my password.

Re: Remember Me
I am unable to reproduce the problem on my own phone or PC. I suggest a work around by using one of the many available Password Managers to fill in your username and password.

Re: Remember Me
A clue?
Happened again. Went to use Strider website today (29th), and it does not remember me (from 26th). Interestingly the J/109 website remembers me from Decembe 22nd.
No PC reboot However, I did a chrome update, but that didn't affect my gmail or other applications that did remember me.

Re: Remember Me
Dan,
I have an idea based on your clue. I frequently do some minor Crew Manager software updates for maintenance and fix issues that cause error log warnings. Whenever the updated files are written to the server, the software does security checks and automatically invalidates logged in cookies so if a hacker got access to the server files, it would require another login session for all users. These software updates are more frequent during my sailing off season since I do some testing and switch between the last stable release files with the new files that are being tested.
I'll leave this open for now, but let me know the next time you experience the not logged in status after you have saved the login. I can check the server log to let you know if a software update was performed. If this is validated, I will close this bug report, as it would be a security issue if invalidating the logged in cookies is did not happen.
