Thread:Project:Support desk/Mysterious password prompt

Hi Guys,

We have set up a mediawiki site on our web server, and all of a sudden, some of our users report that they are prompted for a username / password by their browser (in a pop-up window), whenever they try to load a page from the Wiki. It doesn't matter if they press cancel or ok, on the prompt dialog, or if they enter any username / password or not. The Wiki page always shows the correct pages anyway - very mysterious.

We are running several other services on the same server, and we don't see this login prompt anywhere else.

Our versions: MediaWiki 1.15.1 PHP      5.3.2-1ubuntu4.5 (apache2handler) MySQL    5.1.41-3ubuntu12.8-log Kind regards
