#12447 Unable to login in FF
Closed: Fixed a month ago by msuchy. Opened a month ago by msuchy.

When I go to src.fedoraproject.org and try to login by clicking on the button in upper right corner, I enter my credentials (including 2FA) and then I hit submit I land on

https://src.fedoraproject.org/authorize?code=XXXX

which prints:

Unauthorized
mismatching_state: CSRF Warning! State not equal in request and response.

This happen deterministic and always. I tried to reload the page with form (including hard reload with Ctrl+Shift+R) but I always get this error. It started yesterday and continued today (from different network).

This happens with Firefox. When I tried Chrome, I was able to log in without a problem.


I think we have seen this in the past with a strange cookie state? Can you try clearing cookies and see if it works as expected then?

After purgin all data stored by fedoraproject.org (that includes cookies) I tried to log in.
After passing my credentials, I got "bad transaction id". When I manually navigated to src.fedoraproject.org and clicking Login button I was suddenly logged in.

This is strange behaviour, but beside clumsy user experience, my issue is resolved. Thank you for a pointer.

@msuchy The "bad transaction id" is a known issue and usually it needs just a refresh of the page.
