Description Peter Åstrand cendio 2013-06-25 10:32:16 CEST
When the HTML5 client session is finished, you are left with a red bar and a disconnected message. There's no way to login again etc without manually selecting another URL or bookmark. We should provide some way to redirect to the login page. Perhaps the target page should also be configuration parameter.

Fixed in revision 28467.

Tested in a ThinLinc cluster using build 4290, works as expected and looks great.

Found when testing bug 4864:

> message/"Go to login page".

We want to avoid displaying the "Your session has ended, Go to login page."-message before noVNC has actually loaded. In cases where noVNC loads slowly the user would see this message for a long time and get confused.

This is fixed in revision 28716 where a "The HTML5 client is loading..."-message is displayed initially instead.

Tester needs to verify this behavior.

Build 4304 displays the loading message instead of the session ended message while loading.
