Fedora project login

[Michael A. Peters]

Hello,

Extremely BAD experience trying to log in at 
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2018-9a4a06731c

First I couldn't remember my username but I could remember my password 
and the VERY BROKEN DESIGN does not allow me to request it send me a 
reminder of my username.

Finally figured out my username and it sent me a password reset.

Reset password, and it would not let me log in.

Attempted several times.

Figuring I entered it wrong and did the reset again.

Tried the password the way it was in my password manager and it said I 
couldn't reset it to an old password.

So regenerated new password - but with that also could not log in.

I just need to leave feedback that the EPEL package in testing fixes the 
bug issue I reported.

Very frustrating.

Tried following a contact list to let someone know about this issue - 
but it led me to a list of mailing lists, I don't want to subscribe to a 
new mailing list (I already subscribe to this one)

Someone needs to fix that system. It's very broken. I can't log in to 
report the EPEL package in testing works.

alice(a)librelamp.com is the e-mail address for my account there.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1661390 is the bug report 
for the issue the package in testing fixes. There logging in works just 
fine, but there my browser remembers my login.

It's the bodhi.federaproject.org system I can't log into, even after 
resetting my password twice.

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php
$raw = random_bytes(16);
$encoded = str_shuffle(base64_encode($raw));
echo $encoded

is how I generate my passwords, then I stick them in a manager. I don't 
believe that results in any illegal characters and the bohdi system 
certainly didn't complain.

I hope someone here knows who to forward this to that can fix the broken 
system.

Yeah, we know. As I understand it, aa replacement for FAS (the account
system) is a high-priority infrastructure project for this year.

Sorry for the frustrating experience, and thank you for your feedback on it.

Can you expand on that? What did it do? You got a username/password
dialog? It said password incorrect? or any other messages/errors?

Here's my experience:
Go to https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org
Click "Login"
Dialog pops up asking for user/pass
Click Cancel
Page comes up for FAS log in
Put Fedora Account System credentials
Click "Log In"
Get redirected back to bodhi, logged in.

Typing my FAS credentials into the first pop up dialog just shows the dialog again and
does not log me in.

V/r,

I entered my username and e-mail address once I remembered my username.
It sent me reset link.

Followed reset link, reset password, but the reset password did not work 
to log in to the system.

Clearly the reset password worked because when I tried a second reset - 
resetting to same password - it didn't let me.

But it didn't work for logging in so I could add karma to the package in 
testing that fixes the Y2038 bug the package has even on 64 bit systems 
(a serious bug since the point of package is to fake system date when 
running a command, so it is sometimes used to test 64 bit software for 
Y2038 bugs, so the fix does needs to be pushed out of testing)

I know you are frustrated, and I am sorry it's not working for you, but
can you provide any more detail around "it didn't work"?

What exactly happened when you clicked the login button on the
bodhi.fedoraproject.org page? Did it take you to a login/password
prompt? Did it error? did it just do nothing at all?

It would help us to track down the issue to know more if you have a
chance to provide it...

thanks,

kevin

I've filed https://pagure.io/noggin/issue/4 as an RFE to noggin to
support an "I forgot my username" workflow. noggin is the name of the
replacement UI for FAS.
