Description

We have enabled the AutoLogin feature so that people don't have to enter their credentials each time they go to Redmine. When playing with it, I realized that it cannot be deactivated again. It save the settings page without giving any error but does not change the field. I also checked and it really is not deactivated.

It is possible to change the lease time though.

JB, Eric: the commit for this is here: http://github.com/thegcat/redmine/commit/7ab0baa96a93f0c50d0bc99cefcb52e6fdcba1f4

The change is small: it forces the select list to return 0 instead of '' for "autologin disabled". The problem with having an empty string returned for autologin is that autologin is defined as an int in the settings and thus checked for numericality, which fails for the empty string.

Jan, if you feel up to applying a patch to your installation, here's the diff:

Many thanks for your efforts! I will wait for that version, it's not really a work hindering bug, I just noticed it and thought it might be worth reporting. Thanks for being so superquick.
