Description

After some time (minutes) user file is corrupted (name=USERNAME becames name=)

Steps to reproduce

  1. create user
  2. Work with user - happend much faster when you are logged from two hosts.

Component selection

It seems that this have something todo with file handling on Windows platform. It never occurs on UNIX based machines.

Details

Not much details - after some time in the middle of using wiki I'm getting PermissionDenied (wiki is closed for non-authenticated users). When trying to login I'm getting that login is incorrect. After analyzing of files it seems that while user file update something gets wrong and I endup with line name= instead name=LOGIN. After manually fix this by adding proper username - everything works OK.
