Problem Description

after received the update notification, I installed this latest version 0.17.0. However, I need to login every time I reopen this program. i guess cookie is not being correctly stored?

I don't think there is any changes happened on the LMS side as the old version of BBSync (0.11.2) could still work today, the only reason I moved to 0.17.0 is I cannnot find a way to disable the update notification.

Log File Contents

the log file is empty.

The reason might be because of the update to Qt 6, as the cookie is not and was never manually stored by the app. I will see if there is a way to fix it.

Unfortunately there isn't a way to disable the notification in the app (maybe you can block all of our notifications on windows permissions).

[sanjacob]

You are correct that this is a new issue. I found this in the Qt changelog:

QWebEngineProfile::defaultProfile() Has been removed.
The default profile is now an off-the-record profile, and only used if a
QWebEnginePage
is created without an explicit profile.
To maintain Qt 5 like behavior, create a global profile called "Default"
and use it when creating every
QWebEnginePage.

Default Profile

The default profile is now off the record.
To have a standard browser profile with disk-cache and cookies,
we recommend creating your own profile and using that explicitly.
