Re: internet explorer 11 log in failure

Tried to login today with IE11.
I'm runing IE11 on Win7.

Works as expected.

Thank you Joe.

Re: internet explorer 11 log in failure

as far as I know the ONLY reason for login failure with IE 11 is that your host has not installed all the windows updates on the server.

updating or adding .browser files to a site requires recompiling from source code so that isn't going to work for an existing site and should not be needed.

If the host installs all the windows updates then the server should have updated browser files at the machine level.

Re: internet explorer 11 log in failure

it is true, I saw that updating the file generic.browser everything worked properly.
unfortunately aruba is delaying to update their servers.

I'll try to ask again for their intervention NET 4.5 installed on the machines.

thanks joe, great as always

Re: internet explorer 11 log in failure

Adding the Browser files may not be a good idea. This article explains it:

Also, Joe, I am experiencing a problem with the Admin part of Mojoportal with IE 11 (I only have a Win8.1 machine). With Firefox works fine.

Microsoft makes lots of VM's available to test many possible scenarios. Please check this MS Website for downloading the VM's:

Update, I removed the App Browsers folder and made sure that IE was not running in compatibility mode and the admin is working now on Win 8.1 / IE11.

Re: internet explorer 11 log in failure

We do not have anything in our App_Browsers folder that breaks any web browsers. I added this fragment:

which basically says if you see a browser you don't recognize assume it supports cookies. This does not affect known browser versions of IE and does not interfere with browser definitions updated by windows update.

I DO NOT recommend removing or modifying the /App_Browsers folder of mojoPortal, changes there require that the source code must be re-compiled as far as I know.

I am not aware of any problems using mojoPortal and IE 11 as long as the web server has all the windows updates installed. This thread is resolved and closed as far as I'm concerned.

If you think there is any IE 11 bug in mojoPortal, then try to produce the problem on our demo site, if you can produce a problem there, then start a new thread and explain steps to produce the problem, expected result and actual result.
