<ul></ul><p>someone noted a similar issue with gitlab login - probably best<br />to see if the next iceweasel has the same behavior, and proceed<br />from there</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=156412020-12-04T18:06:54Zrlgh
<ul></ul><p>This might be irrelevant, but have you tried disabling Enhanced Tracking Protection? It's broken at least two login pages for me.</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=156442020-12-05T00:40:42Zbill-auger
<ul></ul><p>i have also noticed recently, that some websites do not work as<br />expected, if geo-location is disabled</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=156452020-12-05T01:11:53Zsobek
<ul></ul><p>Thank you. With "Enhanced Tracking Protection" disabled it works! In preferences I switch to "custom mode" and found out that the cookie options:<br />- All third-party cookies (may cause websites to break) # default value<br />- All cookies (will cause websites to break)<br />break the login. The other 2 options are fine. Firefox uses one of the other 2 options.</p>
<p>To the left of Iceweasel's URL bar the shield icon presents the option "Site fixed? Send report". Should I use it?</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=156462020-12-05T03:46:16Zbill-auger

<p>sobek - im not sure what that button does - presumably, it sends<br />a report to mozilla to help improve the tracking detection - maybe it is explained on the the mozilla website or forums</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=158672021-02-04T20:33:47Zsseneca
<ul></ul><p>I'm getting this problem too, and have been for some time.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, disabling Enhanced Tracking Protection doesn't solve the issue for me. I've also tried with a fresh profile (from about:profiles) with no addons, no trackers or cookies blocked, and it still doesn't work.</p>
<p>Needless to say I have no interest in ever using GitLab again. I just want to login so I can delete my account.</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=158932021-02-16T21:04:57Zbill-auger
<ul></ul><p>WRT gitlab, i noticed that the login screen is returning a 5xx error in an endless loop - AFAIC, that is a bug in the gitlab software - 5xx-class errors are fatal (pathological) (ie: ideally, they should never happen in production) - it should be reported as a bug to the gitlab dev team - i suspect that it probalby already is</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=159332021-03-06T07:19:29Zbill-auger
<ul></ul><p>FWIW, gitlab just got demoted from the FSF list of ethical code<br />hosts</p>

<ul></ul><p>still broken with iceweasel 86, icecat also - there are multiple tickets on the gitlab bug tracker, noting that the cookie expiration is borked somehow - the headers of the 503 error show the expiration as jan 01 1970</p>
<p>i found another website that exhibits the same behavior as gitlab - this one notes that cloudflare is guarding entry to the server</p>
<p>also, other gitlab instances work fine ( eg: gitlab.freedesktop.org )</p>
<p>the headers of the 503 error on gitlab.com, show "server: cloudflare" - probably not a coincidence</p>
<p>i suspect now, that this is not a bug in the gitlab software; but a third-party service, which is blocking certain browsers, per some yet unknown criteria</p> Packages - Bug #2939: [iceweasel]: cannot log into some webstes with "tracking detection" enabledhttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2939?journal_id=159652021-03-17T00:14:29Zbill-auger
<ul></ul><p>i deleted ~/.mozilla/firefox - now, i can get the gitlab.com login form with iceweasel</p>
<p>that trick did not work for icecat though</p>
