Description Rob Landry 2012-02-16 22:44:16 UTC 
Description of problem:

Attempting to logout while bz was in maint mode software errors with:


bz xmlrpc call failed: no call object returned on User.login at Hwcert.pm line 206.


This should not exit with a software error but a more intentional message as to not alarm the user.  A similar message appears when logging in; again it's not that a login was possible but that it should not software error but go to an error handler code path.

new patch for Hwcert.pm

if xmlrpc service unavailable when logging in, clear the browser's cookies those are Bugzilla_cookie and Bugzilla_login, if not, after service is back when calling xmlrpc logout, there will be an error 'login required', and will cause confuse.
