Description

Even when I'm not logged in, I see the Logout link rather than the expected Login link in the top menu at http://data.esa.org. Clicking Logout just redirects back to the front page, where I still see the Logout link rather than the Login link. And clicking "My Submissions" reports "0 data set(s) found", whereas I think the expected behavior when logged out is to present the login screen.

This is an issue Daigle and I experienced on esa-dev during Metacat 1.9.1 testing, and it seems to have propagated to the production ESA site after the upgrade. AFAIR, on esa-dev it would go away after a restart, but return eventually. No idea what triggers it. For what it's worth, Mike suggested at some point that it involved some convoluted javascript. When I reload the page (or click Logout), I do see Login for a split second before it gets replaced by Logout.

For the record, in order to log in, you can still scroll down to find the "Login to the ESA Registry" link on the front page.
