Log-in Problem with Firefox 96.0 (solved)

By Team ^club

15 Jan 2022 - 34 comments | Translate title into English

On January 12, 2022, Mozilla released the updated version 96.0 of the Firefox browser. This causes a log-in error with ipernity. But obviously this is not only an ipernity problem: www.ghacks.net/2022/01/13/some-firefox-users-report-connection-issues-workaround-inside

As an interim solution, you can use Chrome, Opera or other browsers. If you prefer to overcome the log-in problem with Firefox, you can use the following workaround, which was published by Boarischa Krautmo :

♦ Type about:config in the Firefox address bar.
♦ Press the [enter]-key.
♦ Click onto: Accept risk and continue (It's not risky!).
♦ Type samesite into the search bar which opens.
♦ Set all flags to false as shown below (use the toggle on the right edge of each line)

♦ Close Firefox.
♦ Start Firefox again.
♦ Open ipernity.
♦ Login as usual.

This procedure has been tested by several ipernity members and works perfectly.

Nevertheless, we are of course trying to find a solution that makes this approach obsolete.

edit Jan 14: Newest version 96.0.1 no longer causes any login problem.

Two tests showed that changing cookie settings may make logging in easier for those who don't venture into browser configs.

I made the following changes to the cookie settings via the browser sidebar:

Tools ⇾ Page Info ⇾Permissions:

Set cookies ⇾ "Allow for Session".

Store data in persistent storage ⇾ "Block".

After the first attempt, which caused problems like many others, I was able to log in with these settings by finally clicking "Try again" on the browser error message.

I then logged out of ipernity, closed the browser, deleted all cookies and repeated the login process. This time, however, I already changed the cookie settings as described above before trying to log in. And this time it worked without any problem.

Firefox just installed another update to the update of a couple of days ago. 96.0.1. This fixed the issue for me.

Thanks. I used the Firefox procedure. Now, we have to remember that, "Please note that the preference needs to be enabled again once the issue is resolved by Mozilla, as it will cause breakage in the future when HTTP gets deprecated."

Thank you to everyone who worked to resolve this problem. As it happened I didn't need to use the work-around as Firefox has suddenly allowed me to log in again without a problem.

I don't know what you did, but it worked and that's good enough for me :-))

Many thanks to the great minds who worked to solve the problem. I thought I was on my own at first and panicked.

Does any previous version of Firefox have a problem when logging in? I hesitate to try it myself, so that's why I ask if anybody knows the answer.

The problem with logging in due to the update to Firefox version 96.0 was solved by Firefox itself yesterday by updating to version 96.0.1. Logging in is thus possible again without problems when using the latest version and makes further testing unnecessary.

Thank you, Friends. I hope this is resolved now. Initially I filed a Help Ticket because I thought it was my personal failure to approve cookies which had caused the issue. :o I didn't realize that it was affecting many other Firefox users, too. :o

Ich habe die Anleitung von BK benutzt und nicht nach einem FF-update gesucht. Das hat problemlos funktioniert! Ein weiteres update von FF ist ja schon angekündigt...

Yes, I am also still getting the error message with 96.0.1 although it did work for a short period after updating to that version.

Yesterday, it worked directly with reset Firefox settings and the Firefox update.
Today, however, it no longer worked, the error message appeared again.

I then uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it completely. During the installation, it was discovered that there was already an installed version of Firefox (although I had just uninstalled it before). I then selected that it should reinstall everything, i.e. no longer take care of the previously existing installation.

The login then works again without any problems, even without changing the about:config.
But I will keep an eye on this...

Just a brief feedback: Testing to see if I too am having login problems with Firefox again, I left my usual personal cookie settings unchanged today, unlike yesterday's testing, and was still able to log in without any problems.
If the login problem occurs only for those who have implemented the recommended changes in the browser configs, there is a high probability that resetting these changes, if done, may have failed and caused the renewed login problems.

Als Pragmatiker habe ich die Browsereinstellungen einfach geändert belassen. Denn für den 8. Februar ist bereits Firefox 97.0 angekündigt. Womöglich überschreibt dieses Update dann sowieso meine persönlichen Anpassungen.

Désolé, mais ce n'est vraiment pas la faute de l'équipe ima si Mozilla publie une mise à jour défectueuse de son navigateur Firefox.

Wärst du den oben im Artikel befindlichen Link gefolgt, hättest du lesen können, dass es absolut kein ipernity - Problem, sondern ein Problem vieler Webseiten ist. Es lag zunächst einmal am Firefox und dessen Update, nicht an den Webseiten. Es ist ja auch bezeichnend, dass zwei, drei Tage nach einem Major Update direkt ein Hotfix durch den Browserhersteller veröffentlicht wurde... www.ghacks.net/2022/01/15/mozilla-releases-firefox-96-0-1-to-fix-connection-issues berichtet auch darüber.

Davon abgesehen hätten auch andere Browser dieses Problem haben müssen, wenn es ein Problem bei ipernity gewesen wäre, denn die rufen die gleichen Login-Seiten auf.

D'accord avec vous, je n'arrive plus à utiliser firefox depuis plusieurs semaines quels que soient les sites que je visite, cela n'a rien à voir avec Ipernity.

Dans leur obsession de la technique, les programmeurs de navigateurs s'éloignent de plus en plus des possibilités offertes aux gens ordinaires. C'est une évolution inquiétante.
