Cannot login - Chrome / Ubuntu 12.04

[boazrymland]

Hi,

I cannot seem to login to the Redmine I'm running. Redmine version is 2.1.2.stable, running also on Ubuntu 12.04 (64 bit both machines).
Initially I thought this was an issue of SSL certificate but even after straightening this out (chrome doesn't warn anymore and goes straight to Redmine (after chrome close/start)).

I run an HTTP headers catcher and got the following information:

Request is for /users/current.json?include=memberships

Returned (relevant) headers:
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Cache-Control: no-cache, private
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Date: Tue, 27 May 2014 08:45:04 GMT
Keep-Alive: timeout=5, max=100
Server: Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu)

Transfer-Encoding: chunked
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Redmine API"
X-Powered-By: Phusion Passenger 4.0.5
X-Rack-Cache: miss
X-UA-Compatible: IE=Edge,chrome=1

I'd be happy to be able to run this Chrome application.
TIA!
