I have webserver_auth running on my Drupal site so users are authenticated against an htpasswd file. However, if a user edits their account in Drupal their email address is wrong. But changing and saving the email address does nothing; it is still wrong. The email address always seems to be the user's username. Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks

Hi—could you be a bit more detailed? Which configuration options do you have on in webserver_auth? What you seem to be saying is:

  1. User logs in using Basic Auth as 'jimbo'.
  2. User's e-mail address appears as 'jimbo' with no @ or domain.
  3. If 'another-address@example.com' is entered and the user profile is re-saved, the e-mail address still appears as 'jimbo'.

...but please describe it in your own words.

I think this may be a web browser cache problem. For some reason Chrome was caching "saved form data" incorrectly. I cleared the cache and restarted the browser and it seems to work ok.

Thanks
