Hi - We deployed hudson-3.0.1 on apache-tomcat-7.0.39. We are hitting lot of login issues. The logins are unpredictable
Access Control
1. Security Realm : Hudson's own user database
Allow users to signup and Notify user of hudson account creation option enabled.
2. Project-based MATRIX Authorization Strategy
We created a user called deploy. I am able to login as deploy user, But another user who want to login and run his jobs is not able to login consistently.
a. Yesterday he was able to login through Firefox and IE but not chrome. Today only Firefox login is working.

One thing I noticed, the dialog could say bogus "Could not login" while the user is able to login, but not authorized (403 forbidden) to go to a location. In that case it could help to always go to the main Dashboard and then login.
Thanks Prakash. I don't think it is related to going into unauthorized location. The issue is still there even if you go to main dashboard. Only a restart on tomcat is fixing the issue. I have this issue in all dev, QA and prod instnaces .

Hi Guys,
I have here the very same issue. Just the user that I create for me is unable to login. I have always to restart the tomcat to fix the problem. Aldo I noticed that this happens just when I log in with my user and let the browser session expire.
I'm using chrome. Even trying with another browsers the issue persists, after a session expire, My user cannot login anymore.
