[NOTICE] Fresh installation causes logging in issues from version 9.11 onwards

Mark McGuire shared this announcement 6 months ago

Users who have installed a fresh version of Yellowfin from 9.11 onward may experience issues with logging in on some browsers. This manifests itself as a session timeout when logging in.

This is caused by an additional configuration option that was added to the Yellowfin/appserver/conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml file.

The sameSiteCookies parameter defined here, is what causes the issue. 

Removing the sameSiteCookies="none" component from this line should resolve the issue. A restart is required after changing this configuration.

Fresh installs of Yellowfin 9.12 (when released) and onwards will not have this issue.

Regards,
The Yellowfin Team
