trac trouble: "Warning: No permission to edit the ticket description."

[Dima Pasechnik]

I get this, and get logged out of trac, while attempting to modify the description of 

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/14505

Am I the only one suffering from this?

Thanks,

Dima

and "Warning: No permissions to add a comment." if I try to comment, too.

[Dima Pasechnik]

it looks I can post plain text comments, but no comments with URLs!

[leif]

Yes. :-)

could you please put in the updated url for the spkg (see my comment)?

[Dima Pasechnik]

It drives me mad...

OK, the updated spkg has properly imported history. Please check!

I have seen this before. My suspicion was that it was a problem with the
ISPs in Singapore. I had a particularly bad experience with Singtel
broadband.

[Dima Pasechnik]

indeed that was on a Singtel network!

What do they do - the latency too big?

If its ISP-specific then presumably thats because they force all http through a not-so-transparent proxy.

The proper solution IMHO would be to enable SSL on all development-related web pages. That should just be common sense for data integrity and password safety reasons.

I'll do this as soon as I get time, paying for the SSL certs (a few
bucks a year) using Sage Foundation donations (it seems like a good
use of that money!). What's a list of domains that we should really
switch to using SSL for?

Since we don't need and extended validation certificate we should just get a wildcard *.sagemath.org cert. 

[P Purkayastha]

No, it has nothing to do with latency.

My experience was that I could never log in into the trac on my Singtel
network. I still get problems occasionally on Starhub. On Starhub, I
fill up a comment and then I get a page that I am not logged in, which
is complete bogus.

My suspicion is that they actively filter all web traffic, possibly with
the intention of injecting ads. And they mess up big time.

[Dima Pasechnik]

In my case I was connecting to trac using my Singtel mobile as a wifi hub. 

Good look to them injecting ads into such connections :-)
