Interesting. Running chat on a different computer and can't get in to chat.se. Test page says cookies are failing, but they're enabled. >_<

Chrome is pissing me off. ):

it is doing something funky with cookies and who knows what else

@TimStone IE9 also fails the cookie step according to chat.se's help page, but Firefox works.

I've been googling trying to find stuff about the lastpass issue, but I am coming up empty. Cookies are definitely enabled in Chrome.

and I'm not really sure where else to look. >_<

@RebeccaChernoff So do cookies work elsewhere?

@TimStone totally, there's a bunch of cookies if I view "Cookies and Other Data"

Only me would be able to install chrome and not have it just work

@RebeccaChernoff When you go to the chat login help page, can you see the cookie in the Inspector? It's sent with the response to GET help

@TimStone I've got csr, gauthed, seuser, x, and Local Storage for chat.stackexchange.com. Not any others. ):

@RebeccaChernoff For chat.stackexchange.com/help you don't get have_a_cookie?

@TimStone Just using chrome's cookie inspector from the options, not looked anywhere else yet.

@RebeccaChernoff Yeah, I'd check with the Network tab in the dev tools to see what the response looks like for that page when you want to mess around with it :)

So yeah, I apparently just got suspended from StackExchange Chat because someone as a joke flagged a Youtube video of Rebecca Black's Friday, that I posted in reply to someone else referencing said video... and other people agreed.

Why is it people on chat can even flag Youtube video links / StackExchange question links as offensive, anyway?

Never mind, I think I'll take this up on Meta instead.

@RBemrose sighs That seems to happen a lot.

@TimStone Can you yell at Ronan for me?

If he's not going to read the chat flags, he has no business voting on them.

@TimStone that shows cookies?

@RebeccaChernoff Look at the Response headers, for Set-Cookie. I mean, I don't see any logical reason you wouldn't get the cookie to begin with, but I figure working your way down the response chain might help :P

ah, just the header. yeah, the response has the set-cookie

And have_a_cookie=and eat it is there?

aye. would rather have my cake and eat it too, but I'll let that slide for now q:

@RebeccaChernoff Heh :p And $.cookie('__utma'); works in the console?

@TimStone $.omnomnom($.cookie)

@badpssockpuppet The "Hello World" of the jQuery Guide to Eating (and doing all things)

Now that I moved everything in here I don't think I can blame it on chat, heh. |:

Chrome options > cookie inspector says I have several chat.stackexchange.com cookies. Running $.cookie(<x>) on them returns null for several and the right value for others.

null = csr, seuser - works = gauthed, x. have_a_cookie isn't listed and comes up null if I try to pull it

Yeah, the behaviour is correct for the first two because they're httpOnly. have_a_cookie is unset by the test method, so it'll never be there if it works correctly (and I guess also not there if it doesn't, since all it does is check to see if it's there :P)

have_a_cookie is the name of the test cookie on the global auth help page

@TimStone oh, right, duh.

@balpha yes I know. I can't get in to chat.se on another machine, and the help page says it is because cookies are failing.

but they're definitely enabled in Chrome and I'm quite stuck on why it is failing.

is global auth working on the regular sites?

no

@TimStone whoops, never responded to this, but yeah it works

nods I'll leave you in balpha's more-capable hands for a moment while I go vacuum ;)
