Hi All,

We subscribe to a journal that can only be accessed by logging in with an username and password. I tried to embed the login information into an ezproxy stanzas by using FormVariable.

The stanzas firstly seems works. I can see the platform website showing our institutional name and logout button after I logging in via the ezproxy (see attached screenshot 1). This screen is the same screen I will get when I login directly via the journal platform, has this URL - http://epla.org.au/environmental-law-reporter/elr-subscribers .  However, when I continue clicking on "Read More" and try to open the full text of the issue, the platform directs me back to a login screen (see screenshot 2) with URL - http://epla.org.au/acl_users/credentials_cookie_auth/require_login?came_from=http://epla.org.au/environmental-law-reporter/elr-subscribers/2019/document_view.

I have tried to change the url in stanzas, but still have the same issue. Somehow the embedded username and password couldn't be carried over from one page to another page. Is there anything I could add or change to the stanzas, to solve the issue? I will be really appreciate to your help or any suggestion on getting the login work with stanzas for this journal.

Here is the stanzas I am using:
T Environmental Law Reporter
U -Form=post ELRlogin http://epla.org.au/environmental-law-reporter/elr-subscribers
FormVariable __ac_name=usr
FormVariable __ac_password=psw
FormVariable action=login
DJ epla.org.au


Regards,

Kira
