Login does not work in Firefox

Kirby 3
1

Hi

I can’t log in to the panel using Firefox on an iPad. I get a red box with 'Login without password is not enabled. It works on Safari ok. Is this an issue with the Firefox browser?
Thanks

When exactly does this error appear? After entering credentials or before?

So it works everywhere else, just not on a iPad with Firefox?

When you try and log in.

I have only used Safari and Firefox.

I think we need more information here:

  • how are you trying to log in, with password or with code? Are you entering the password manually or via a Password manager?
  • Please post your config file.
  • which Kirby version are you using?
  • Is this on a remote server or locally? What type of web server?
  • does this only happen on an iPad or also on your computer? Which iOS version?

I don’t have an iPad to test so we need any information you can provide.

The only place where this error message is thrown is in /kirby/config/api/routes when no password is provides an neither code nor password-reset are set.

how are you trying to log in, with password or with code? Are you entering the password manually or via a Password manager? via password and 1password manager and manually.

Please post your config file.

      "domain" => "thekintyreway.com", // not required if not set it will be taken from $site->url
   ],
   
];

which Kirby version are you using? 3.6.5

Is this on a remote server or locally? What type of web server? Remote server - LiteSpeedweb server.

Does this only happen on an iPad or also on your computer? Which iOS version? No it happens on other machines as well (PC). It’s for someone else to log in and use the panel. The iOS version is 15.4.1

So, to recap:

You get this error on all iOS devices and computers (Windows? Mac?)that you tested on, but only with Firefox, not with any other browsers?

I’m using Firefox on my Mac and have never had an issue logging into the Panel.

Are you using any settings that prevent cookies? Any browser add-ons? Have you tried with all add-ons disabled?

When you examine the /auth/login in dev tooks network tab, what request/response data do you get?

You get this error on all iOS devices and computers (Windows? Mac?)that you tested on, but only with Firefox, not with any other browsers? It works on my mac on safari, firefox and chrome.
It does not work on Firefox on a laptop PC which another person is using and I don’t have access to.

I have tried logging in manually with the iPad and it works ok, so it may be to do with how they are logging in or using a password manager which does not seem to work on an iPad.

Well, I think this has nothing to do with Kirby and there don’t seem to be steps to reproduce this. So can’t help, I’m afraid.

Ok, thanks for your input and help.
