I recently installed Gnats v4 with Gnatsweb v4 (both from CVS as of

many thanks to Yngve Svendsen for making his current v4 install guide
available.

However, I've hit upon a few problems, and I'm not sure if it's with my
installation or with Gnatsweb.

1. Each page served appears to be missing the beginning <BODY> and
tags. 2. The redirect page after login appears to be missing the code to cause a redirect to happen: 3. The link on the redirect page links back to the login page, causing an infinite click-loop. Each of these where tested from various workstations (Linux and Windows) using Mozilla 0.96 and IE 5-6.

We should probably look at these things one by one. Let's try tackling number 3.

You do have cookies enabled in the browser(s) you're using? If you have, this looks a bit like a GNATS problem. Try telneting to port 1529 of your GNATS server, then try to do a "CHDB databasename", where databasename is the name of the database you tried to access through Gnatsweb. Then try to do a "USER username password" where username an password correspond to a proper entry in the gnatsd.access file of the database. With a bit of luck, the results from this should tell us something about what is wrong.
