MyCCRI Error Messages

I am my wireless laptop at home, and I being prompted for a User ID and pin number.

You will need to check the firewall setting on your router. If it is set to high or medium, you will need to set it to low. You may also want to add *.ccri.edu as a trusted site in your browser.

Why am I being prompted to enter a User ID and pin when trying to access the tools under the For Students tab?

You may be prompted for a user id and pin for one of the following reasons:

  1. If you are at your place of employment it is probably a firewall issue. The networking department may have ports 9000 or 9443 blocked which will prohibit a student from accessing the tools under the For Students tab.
  2. If you are at home and are on a wireless laptop, it may be the firewall that is setup on the router. You need to either configure the router to allow access to *.ccri.edu or disable the firewall.
  3. When you login to your MyCCRI account, your credentials are verified with our student database and if there is a delay in the verification process, when you attempt to access the tools under the For Students tab you will be prompted to enter a User ID and pin number. If this is the case, just log out of your MyCCRI account and then log back in and that should resolve the issue.

Why am I getting timed out from MyCCRI?

MyCCRI is currently set to time out after 15 minutes of inactivity. The timeout was established to minimize the risk of unauthorized access to personal data from a MyCCRI session that may be left on at a desktop computer or a computer in a lab or other public location. This is consistent with what you might experience with an online banking service.

However, you can now change the length of time your system can sit idle before it automatically times out. To do this, click on Options, located next to the Logout icon in the upper left corner. Under User Options Menu, click on Timeout and you will be able to set the System Timeout to log you out anywhere from 5 minutes to 180 minutes.
