I saw this on a 10.6.8 Mac with the Safari 5.1.7 update using Self Service 8.22 this morning.

Same thing on a 10.7.4 mac. We are currently at 8.1

We are also seeing it with 10.7.4 and Casper 8.5.2. It worked fine with 10.7.2 and 10.7.3. Has anyone submitted a support ticket on this yet?

There is another thread on this same topic at https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/discussion.html?id=4423 that includes more specifics about the cause and our current course of action.

I was speaking to tanderson above me, and he said that it sounds like it is more of an issue with Apple's WebKit that changed in the update. It is also affecting our Secure Exam Browser software.

Didn't see anyone mention that, but wanted to share.

Here's a quick fix

On your JSS Server go to Library/JSS/Tomcat/webapps/ROOT/theme/selfservice2

Copy the SelfService.css file to your desktop

Open the file in a text editor (TextWrangler is what I use)

at line 58 you'll see

div#login input{
margin-bottom: 10px;
float: left;
}

make it

div#login input{
margin-bottom: 10px;
float: left;
border: 1px solid #fff;
}

copy the SelfService.css file back to Library/JSS/Tomcat/webapps/ROOT/theme/selfservice2

You will have to authenticate to get it back

by adding the white (fff) 1px border to the input field you will now have white text boxes again

Now users can launch SelfServce and see white boxes again

Thank you, Snook
Worked perfectly for me.
The path for "SelfService.css" on my 10.6.8 JSS is slightly different
/Library/Tomcat/webapps/ROOT/theme/selfservice2/

Carlo - glad it worked!

Good to know about the different path. That will help others too I'm sure.

So we can add 'Your path may vary" depending on your install but once you find the theme/selfservice2 folder and you are all set

Not sure why yet, but on our 10.7.3 JSS box, it did not seem to fix the problem. I also restarted Tomcat, but no go there either.
