Description of problem: on a clean installation, web UI sessions are reset after every single request. This appears to be caused by an idle_timeout set to zero. As a workaround, go to Administer > Settings > General and set idle_timeout to 60 or similar. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm -q foreman katello-installer katello foreman-1.7.0.0-1.2.el6_6sat.noarch katello-installer-2.1.1-1.el6_6sat.noarch katello-2.1.0-1.el6_6sat.noarch How reproducible: One el6 smoketest host so far Steps to Reproduce: 1. install RHEL 6.6 2. yum -y install katello 3. katello-installer Actual results: Attempting to log in results in repeated Session Expired messages. Expected results: Installation completes successfully and user is able to log in Additional info: Issues did not present themselves on the RHEL 7 smoketest host.
