Keychain Access bug not to store Internet Password

2008年 2月 25日


I found a big trouble with Keychain Access and Safari not to be able to store Internet Password if you have two or more basic authentication accounts of every directories on the same domain. So I examined this problem here I set. Obviously, the reason is that Keychain Access fail to locate an accurate URI and overwrite account attribute to identify the authentication information as a same one.

If you will skirt around this issue, you have to edit Keychain manually. Specifically, create new password file or duplicate existing one, and modify “where” attribute to suit entire location. In many cases, all you have to do is just append the name of directory, I think.
