Summary

JIRA Home preference is not working properly in Firefox and google chrome but working fine in Internet explorer.

Environment

• JIRA version 7.1.7
• JIRA version 6.4.13
• Google Chrome
• Firefox

Steps to Reproduce

1. Firefox: Options » When Firefox starts » select Show a blank page
2. Chrome: Settings » On startup » select Open the New Tab page
3. Login to JIRA instance
4. Click on user profile and set issue Navigator as your JIRA Home
5. Logout and close your browser.
6. Open browser and login again.

Expected Results

Once login you will be automatically directed to issue navigator page since you have set issue navigator as your JIRA Home as shown in below image.

Actual Results

You will be directed to dashboard page once login even though you set your JIRA Home as issue navigator page.

Notes

If user logout and login again via http://localhost:8080/login.jsp JIRA Home is working fine but if user logout and login again via http://localhost:8080/secure/Dashboard.jspa it will bring the user to dashboard page instead of JIRA Home

Workaround

1. Use Internet Explorer as in internet explorer when you login from http://localhost:8080/secure/Dashboard.jspa it will automatically bring user to their preferred JIRA Home page instead of dashboard.
   
2. Bookmark the login URL as:
   http://localhost:8080/login.jsp?os_destination=%2Fissues%2F%3Fjql%3D where http://localhost:8080 is your JIRA base URL to get directly to Issue Navigator page
