  • Description modified (diff)
  • Keywords documentation added
  • Milestone set to 0.10.1
  • Owner changed from jonas to cboos
  • Severity changed from normal to minor
  • Summary changed from error login to More explicit messge for error on login

I'm leaving this open though, as I think we get that installation issue reported often enough and that maybe it's time to output a more friendly and informative message to the user.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

Error message improved in r4160 (trunk) and r4162 (0.10-stable).

Hopefully we'll get less messages of this kind in the future ;)
