This is almost certainly a problem with your cookie or privacy |
15 |
settings, rather than with how FF is built. |

Try launching FF with a new profile to see if that fixes it. From a |
18 |
terminal, like this: firefox -p |
19 |
|

Then try making a new profile with default settings, and see if you can |
21 |
log in with that profile. If you can, then something in the settings |
22 |
on your original profile is to blame. |

(Disclaimer, there may be easier ways to manage profiles in FF but |
25 |
launching it with -p is what has always worked for me, YMMV). |
