The same login/password works in Firefox, but doesn't work in Chrome

[malordin]

Hi all, the essence of the problem from the thread title, I noticed a strange feature that my account only works in firefox browser.

There can't be an error because I copy the login and password and paste them into the login forms. I have even tried changing my account password but the problem persists, I can log in with the new password in firefox but still can't log in with it in google chrome.

I would think that the problem is somewhere with my browser in google chrome or with cookies, but I created another account with admin permissions and it suddenly works in google chrome!

I tried to find logs where the login error would be written, but didn't figure out how to do that. I have the installation via docker, here is my docker-compose file:

version: "3"
services:

  db:
    image: postgres:11-alpine
    environment:
      POSTGRES_DB: wiki
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: wikijsrocks
      POSTGRES_USER: wikijs
    logging:
      driver: "none"
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - db-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data

  wiki:
    image: ghcr.io/requarks/wiki:2
    depends_on:
      - db
    environment:
      DB_TYPE: postgres
      DB_HOST: db
      DB_PORT: 5432
      DB_USER: wikijs
      DB_PASS: wikijsrocks
      DB_NAME: wiki
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "2500:3000"

volumes:
  db-data:

Everything is completely standard. I'd be happy to provide more information if you can tell me how to provide it to debug the problem. Thanks, I'll look forward to hearing back from you.

Make sure you don't have browser extensions that messes with the page?

Well, this is going to sound dumb, but yes, the problem was in the extension that somehow broke the logic of auto-filling login and password, on a clean version of chrome everything works fine. Thanks for the tip!

I'm honestly having this exact same issue, but there are no extensions installed on chrome. I have extensions installed on Firefox, but you see that I have logged on.

i'm having this issue, have you any answer?

Nope, I just tried it again (it has now been a month since i tried it before) and chrome or github still has something messed up with it...

I get you I faced the same issue a while back, my Gmail also kept asking for password that too specifically in Firefox. And my OCD mind decided to get to the core of it. The reason is unique privacy mechanisms that Firefox has to offer --> Site Isolation. Since ever Gmail came our with this thing where it permanently enables IMAP and OAuth these issues are appearing with many Firefox users as they conflict with each other. Although cloud has its advantage no doubt, to resolve this many user have their Gmail account configured in desktop client, If you want you can try Mozilla Thunderbird or Outlook. In order to access emails easily some users also prefer to use an Email Backup Tool to save their emails offline.
