APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When you use Internet Explorer IE9 in IE8 compatibility mode,
    your uBuild version 5.0.1.3 will show the initial splash screen
    without the textboxes to enter in User and Password.  This
    prevents you from logging in.
    

Local fix

  • From MS Docs:
    * <meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=edge" >
    Note that this is functionally equivalent to using the HTML5
    doctype. It places Internet Explorer into the highest supported
    document mode. Edge most is most useful for regularly
    maintained websites that are routinely tested for
    interoperability between multiple browsers, including Internet
    Explorer.
    
    That HTML5 doctype is <!DOCTYPE html> and is in our login.jsp
    and header.jsp already
