OBIEE 11g the first disappointment.

After about an hour of fiddling about and reading documentation I finally got the OBIEE 11g image to work. Even before I log into analytics I meet my first disappointment. Really it is a very small thing, but still annoying that they haven't fixed it.

So here it goes. When you come to the login page, you naturally start filling it from the top towards the bottom. So you enter user id and password. Then you notice that the server has a different default language than what you prefere. So you switch from default to what ever your preference is. The problem is that this trigger a reload of the page, so that your user id and password field is empty and you have to fill it out again. This is the kind of things that annoy user, and it is a bad first meeting with a product.
