Hi all, I'm having some issues to access RQM, I need to retype my user ID and password every time I connect to the RQM server, even though I checked "remember my ID", Does anyone have a possible solution?

The Jazz server "remember user ID" feature works by setting an HTTP cookie. Example from my browser (where localhost is my RQM server):

If the "remember user ID" feature is not working on your machine, this is a browser issue (not an RQM server issue). Either your browser is set to not accept cookies from your RQM server, or perhaps your browser is set to discard cookies at a certain interval (or when you close the browser), or maybe even you are manually deleting them? Any of these will cause a saved user ID to be lost.

Hi Patrick, thanks for the quick answer, I checked my browser's cookies, and I can see the following records.
- JSESSIONID
- JazzFormAuth
- SaveStateCookie
- X-com-ibm-team-foundation-auth-loop-avoidance
- net-jazz-ajax-cookie-rememberUserId
but every time I close the browser, the "remember user ID" option is cleaned, any other idea?

There is a bug opened in RQM about this problem:

A work around could be to use BASIC authentication instead of FORM.
