by ·Comments Off on Seeing An Error When Accessing MyDenison, Denison Apps or Other Denison Web Services?

If you receive an error message when clicking a shortcut/favorite/bookmark to access any service that uses the Denison BigRedID login page (like MyDenison, Denison Apps, Blackboard, etc.), please double-check your shortcut/favorite/bookmark to make sure it has the correct URL as listed below.

MyDenison: https://my.denison.edu
Denison Apps: https://apps.denison.edu
Blackboard: https://courses.denison.edu
Notebowl: https://notebowl.denison.edu

In most browsers, you can right-click on your favorite/bookmark and choose “Edit” or “Properties” to view and edit the target URL.

EXPLANATION: Often when you go to a service and then create a bookmark, it bookmarks a long URL that has session or other specific information that may change over time, particularly when services are upgraded. It is best to edit or manually create a shortcut/bookmark to use a published URL for the service as with those above.
