[Mediawiki-l] Remote Users submitted pages become blank previews

[Dan Horne]

Hi
 
I've implemented a remote authentication scheme using both the
Auth_remoteuser extension and the extension outlined in
http://www.raskas.be/blog/2006/11/17/mediawiki-remote-user-authenticatio
n/. However, in both cases, I encounter the following problem: When I
edit a page and submit the changes, instead of posting the change,
Mediawiki presents an empty preview page (i.e. the page's content is
missing). If I save the preview, the original content is lost. Does
anyone know why I am getting an empty preview page? My environment:
 
Mediawiki 1.12
Apache 2.0.61 on Windows.
mod_auth_sspi to populate the REMOTE_USER variable.
IE v6.
 
Note: If I use Firefox, I get prompted with a login box (I guess it
doesn't do automatic NTML integration), but the submit problem does not
occur
 
Any help appreciated
 
Dan
