To reproduce, attempt to log in using a username such as '123x'. The session doesn't complete the setup, leaving the user at a blank screen. Suggestion: a user-visible error message should be produced, and an informative message sent to the system log. Best wishes, Norman -- Norman Gray : https://nxg.me.uk
