Login fails
-
Hello everyone,
I have had discourse installed for a long time. (lately 3.1.3)
Recently a user informed me that the login no longer works.Currently nothing happens during login, the login window remains and shows "Signing In" forever.
If I move the Discourse app to another subdomain, everything seems to work. If I put it back on the original subdomain, the login does not work again.
Even a fresh installation shows the same error.What I have already tried.
- I quickly found out that a plugin could be the problem. I removed all subfolders from the plugins folder. At that point, the login worked again. I put the plugins back in one by one. Suddenly the login no longer worked at all.
- I have restored backups. First the login worked again without plugins. So I tried again to find out which plugin was causing problems.
- Now there is no login at all, with or without plugins. Not even with a fresh installation.
- On another subdomain the login works, even with the plugins.
How can the domain cause the error? What should I do?

Okay, I've come one step further.
The situation with the domain was apparently caused by Firefox. With Vivaldi there is a successful login again, or an error, depending on the plugins. How unnecessary

Actually Discourse only works with one plugin, but the plugin itself does not work: Discourse User Notes
With the other tested plugins nothing works, only the error message:
"Oops
The software powering this discussion forum encountered an unexpected problem...."
I only tested two further Plugins: check-list and reactionsMy test procedure is simply to remove the plugin folder and restart the app. I have no idea whether this is a reliable test.
