I recently upgraded our installation from Mac OS X Server 10.4 to Mac OS X Server 10.6, updating to DokuWiki rc2011-11-10 at the same time (I'd been running that version of DokuWiki on my laptop first to test it). I've noticed a strange intermittent issue that seems only to affect the user that has read-only access to the wiki: you login as this user and get taken to the Permission Denied window, so you go back and login again and everything is fine.
I can't spot the pattern. Is there something obvious I've missed? I don't have this problem on my laptop, but (system apart) everything else is the same as far as I can tell...
Thanks.

When accessing the wiki-starting page (...doku.php), I get the site saying "access denied, please login".
After login I can see the starting page. When clicking on a Link on the starting-page I have to login once more, after that everything works.
The wiki is configured to be only accessible when logged in.
There is a "read-only" user, some admins and some users with permission to specific namespaces only.
I'm using Release 2016-06-26a "Elenor of Tsort".

I am running the Wiki on a Synology server in my living room, and I had the same issue: I had to log in twice. Since I was the only user who encountered the problem, I did a few experiments, and this is the result:
The server is visible in the internet under the IP address assigned to me by my internet provider, and it's accessible under a domain name. The wiki is configured to know its domain name.
Accessing the Wiki under its fully qualified domain name, i.e. from outside my home, will give the proper behaviour: logging in once will suffice.
Accessing the Wiki using the local IP address within my LAN (such as 192.168.1.70) and logging in will NOT suffice. The Wiki asks for the credentials again. Loggin in for the second time will suffice and I'm logged in for good.
The remedy in my case consists in always using the external IP address or the fully qualified name of the server, even for using the Wiki within my LAN. However, when using it within the LAN, logging in twice will work as well.
