There is a separate problem here, on your local setup. Avoid making changes to common.py which cannot go upstream because every package update will assert the upstream version without any regard to your change.
It's possible you have a gunicorn process which isn't stopping correcltly, possibly due to an earlier misconfiguration. It's also possible you may need to restart Apache.
What you have at the moment isn't a fix, it's only a step to work out the actual fix.
Yes I just wanted to check if my config was actually took in count or
not. I didn't know I could check this through
the developer shell, will do next time.
Possibly try adding "CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY": false,
in /etc/lava-server/settings.conf
I added this line and I removed a line which was about LXC_PATH.
Maybe this was the root of the problem,
leading to an error when reading the settings and making django use
the default settings.
If that was the case, it's something that should be investigated to see if it can be detected .
The other tool to use in these situations (I keep forgetting to recommend it) is:
lava-server manage check --deploy
Please could you file an issue on https://git.lavasoftware.org/lava/lava/issues ? The issue should investigate what Django does if there are errors in /etc/lava-server/settings.conf and how those errors can be detected with lava-server manage check --deploy
I double checked, trying to recreate the problem by readding the
LXC_PATH line and removing the line "CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY": false.
Everything is still working fine... I made sure the settings was took in
count by resetting the CSRF verification to true, and it is.
Also checked with lava-server manage check --deploy, everything is how
it is expected. So, I'm not sure what this was about... Surely an issue with my environment.
Do you still want me to submit an issue ? I'm not sure it would be
relevant as the issue seems to be linked to random environment issue (maybe a gunicorn process
as you suggested before).
It would still useful if lava-server manage check --deploy could report that the settings reported from Django don't match /etc/lava-server/settings.conf or if /etc/lava-server/settings.conf has some kind of syntax error. So, yes, an issue would be good.
If so, do I have to create an account or do something ? Tried to log in
with my Linaro account but didn't work.
If you have a GitHub account, click the GitHub icon and log in that way. If not, please create a new account. It will be useful when there are upstream changes you wish to contribute from your testing or devices. e.g. a documentation update for identifying and fixing problems with login.
But now it works fine, so thank you for that.
Thanks. I am always concerned when users resort to changing the defaults in common.py - there is clearly a problem affecting their system and it is never clear where the problem lies, only that changing common.py is only a temporary fix. Authentication backends are very opaque - whilst it's true that this avoids leaking details of valid authentications, it is common to find a lack of useful debug information in the same code. We hand off this part to Django, so we don't get the chance to add debug during authentication. If we can find a way to report that /etc/lava-server/settings.conf is invalid or has been ignored for some reason, that should help others with their problems.
Yes this would be useful to put this kind of debug in the lava-master
log (or whatever you prefer)
because this is the first thing I checked and no information were
provided.
You can also use the developer shell to load the settings and see
what
has actually been set.
$ sudo lava-server manage shell
>> from django.conf import settings >> settings.CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE
False
Again, avoid making changes here, those would only be temporary.
Don't
be tempted to do much more than check the settings in the developer shell - it is massively powerful and can easily trash your instance. It is a useful tool, when used with caution.

Thank you for this information, I will use this tool now to check my
settings.
Best regards, Axel
