Hi there

I am getting the following spurious postings to the watchdog e.g.

access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:05 user/1277/track/navigation denied access. Anonymous view
warning access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:05 user/1277/track/navigation denied access. Anonymous view
warning access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:05 user/1277 denied access. Anonymous view
warning access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:05 user/1277 denied access. Anonymous view
warning access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:02 node/68 denied access. Anonymous view
warning access denied 5 Jul 2006 - 14:02 node/68 denied access. Anonymous view

As you can see, there are two messages. These are for entries that I (Admin) performed successfully.

Therefore, is the page being loaded three times (once for Admin logged on and twice for anonymous users)? I assume there are probably three sessions open for this computer.

Any ideas what's going on?!

Thanks

The behaviour resembles the way simple authentication was implimented in older browsers.
- try once anonymously, or with marginal identification, and only if that fails try again with password.

Do you have a cookie-blocker enabled or something? Browser enhancements that may be trying to access the site for you?
Looks like your browser is not sending cookies unless it really has to.

Caching proxy or firewall?
Compare these messages with the actual server logs - especially the referrer field.

So the latest browser.

What's also odd is that in one of my pages, I have an INSERT INTO buddylist $user->uid etc.

It adds the correct user, but also sometimes another entry where the user is 0. Even though the user is logged in.

So that's odd too, and it's doing my head in :)

I am having the same problem:

I am logged in as Admin
I can see the logs/referrers page
...but I also have in the logs:
admin/logs/referrers denied access.

And this is following a request from my user admin, not from someone else.
