Login Issue

R_J

I believe yesterday or the day before yesterday it happened first: I've entered my username and password and got the message that the password is wrong. Entering it a second time worked (using Firefox and windows.
Since I copy & paste it I was kind of surprised. It might happen one time that I do not copy the string I wanted to copy but more than one time is awkward. Now I've looked myself in from my mobile phone and from my tablet (both Opera on Android). Each time I've entered the password very carefully and each time I got a "wrong password" at the first try while the second try did work.

Afterwards I've logged out from my laptops browser (PaleMoon=Firefox on Windows), logged in again and also got "wrong password" although the password field gets populated from the browsers password manager. Trying a second time works without problems.

Signing out now and signing in works on the first run. Maybe I'll have to log in from another device to recreate that? I bet if I try to login tomorrow at work I'll be seeing that error again. I'll report about that.

I had the same thing happen. My saved password was not accepted, but entering it again worked. I thought it was my fault. This happens on Safari for me...

I got logged out as well a day or two ago.

This issue is happening in chrome too. If you click the sign in button twice you get logged in .

I just experienced this issue of FF 29.0.1 on Win 7

Yes the red message says try again, not passwords don't match. Which is better than passwords don't match for security purposes, and just pressing the sign in again works. Maybe it's a new spam control feature lol ?

To be honest, I haven't red the message carefully. But you are right: hitting the login button a second time works for me, too

Thanks guys!

//edit: "Please try again" indicates the transient key isn't matching during the first try, which indicates maybe a session issue on new inf. I've reproduced & escalated this to @Tim.

Tim

This has been fixed, thanks for the report

Thanks @Linc & @Tim
I can confirm that I haven't had this issue today. But I think you forgot some "Debug Trace" below comments

Hey, I'm still having this issue. I'm running version 2.1. This happens every 2 days, it will log me out of the forum and then first attempt always fails. Second attempt works. I'm using chrome, also encountered the same issue on FireFox.
