Clunge Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Every time I try to visit one of the board's sub-forums on mobile, I'm getting a pop-up billed 'Authentication' asking for my username and password. Any ideas/solutions? EDIT: Getting it on desktop too. Edited June 19, 2014 by Clunge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Same here. Never had it before either. Occurring on both Firefox and Chrome for the record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensile Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Ditto. Seems a little fishy, but hopefully it's just an update error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Quinton Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Same on laptop using firefox - 'A user name and password are being requested by http://board.muse.mu. The site says: "Muse.mu Administrator Panel"' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I've forwarded it to Kev, I have the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Ok, that should be fixed now. Sorry about that, seems Warners analytics script had gone nuts :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Still there for me. What's that announcement from 2013 at the top of the forums? It doesn't even have a link to click. Would that have anything to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 what skin are you using? oh and which announcement? Where do I see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 what skin are you using? white muse, but the announcement just disappeared. all seems to be good now; not sure if that was the problem though (or how it got there in the first place!) Thanks Kev Edit: It was at the top of the page in each forum, but it's gone now. It didn't have a title that you could click, and was from 2013 apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 oh what, that's well weird :-/ I didn't see it. Seems totally different from the auth issue too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maturefan Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Same here. Never had it before either. Occurring on both Firefox and Chrome for the record. Same here. I gave my username but not my password. Twice. It kept popping up so I assumed it was a scam and just closed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 It's gone now though I presume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurophu Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) For some reason after getting this (and it not accepting my login) a load of times (Guessing it's not connected but I didn't want to start a new thread cause I think its just me) Now I can't connect to specifically THIS website (the whole forum) with my WiFi internet, only with my mobile internet connection does it work Also virgin media were doing something on our street but seeing as it's ONLY the forum I can't connect to, I thought maybe I'd see if anyone else has the same problem on here Also tried it with Firefox (usually on chrome) on my mobile and no luck Forgot to mention I'm getting the same problem on my desktop computer too, so must be internet based..

matthijs Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Have you cleared cookies? Another option would be a DNS flush or DHCP release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be related to the auth issue as that should only affect you on a browser level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurophu Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Have you cleared cookies? Another option would be a DNS flush or DHCP release? I 'cleared the cache' on chrome, dunno if that did all of that, didn't work what do you see when it fails? any error messages or anything? It shouldn't be related to the auth issue as that should only affect you on a browser level. Chrome just says it couldn't load/ couldn't find the page And Firefox says the connection timed out and 'The server at board.muse.mu is taking too long to respond.'

Strawberry_Juice Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hi, on my mobile, no wifi. Absolutely can't access the board on wifi today and for much of yesterday, and I also saw the weird "authentication" messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Kev; I remember having the same issue at some point and you fixed it then - something about board security kicking in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 You could be right actually Matthijs, too many authentication fails could blacklist an IP. futurophy, strawberry juice, and anyone else. If you could find put your ip (google: "what is my IP address") on a machine that's having problems and either pm me or email (kev@muse.mu) it and I'll check/remove it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
