Self Service 8.52 with 10.7.4 update – name and password field blacked out

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

This is the modified file from JSS 8.52
