[Planetlab-devel] api sessions & other issues with the web UI

[Thierry Parmentelat]

Hi Reid

I'm experiencing a bug in the web UI.  I'm having this issue on the 
one-lab site but not on planet-lab.org:
Whenever a given node's details are displayed, the web session becomes 
useless; the api session gets rejected by the API and any given 
subsequent call to the API fails. It turns out the session entry in the 
database somehow gets wiped off.

On my site I've found out that I could getting rid of the issue if I did 
not call GetEvents in nodes/index.php

Does this ring any bell ? It sounds like an issue that appeared on your 
website a while ago, that you guys probably have fixed.

On a similar track, I've found that UpdateNode.py needed a patch for 
regular users to be able to change their node's boot state. Again this 
is an issue that appeared in the support ML so I take it you've found 
out already.

I've also tweaked the nodes browser to support patterns in hostnames.
I am about to commit my changes, and will of course describe all these 
changes in the cvs log so you can keep up.

Hope this helps - Thierry
