Hi,
I am experiencing the same problem that is reported here: https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-6810.
When logging with an LDAP user and checking the ”Remember me” option in the web admin interface, I am not getting the ”SPRING_SECURITY_REMEMBER_ME_COOKIE”-cookie like you would with a local GeoServer account.
If I log in with a local account I get this in the GeoServer log:
2015-12-17 08:46:49,542 DEBUG [rememberme.GeoServerTokenBasedRememberMeServices] - Added remember-me cookie for user ‘[hidden]@default’, expiry: ‘Thu Dec 31 08:46:49 CET 2015’
But if I use an AD-account:
2015-12-17 08:45:12,638 DEBUG [rememberme.GeoServerTokenBasedRememberMeServices] - Unable to retrieve username
The authentication with the AD-account is successful and I do get logged in to GeoServer, but do not get the cookie.
I thought I would try the user list to see if anyone has solved this problem or maybe have some suggestions on what to do (or maybe there is not too much you can do as an end user to get this to work?).
Some information about our current setup:
GeoServer version: 2.8.0 running om Tomcat 8.0
Java version: 1.7.0_45 64 bits
OS: Windows Server 2012 R2
Regards,
Markus.
