    Help me here. I'm not an expert. Here is the request going into the server. The error code is 400 (Bad Request)

    The session string is: eyJSZWZlcmVyIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9sb2NhbGhvc3QvaW5ib3giLCJfZnJlc2giOmZhbHNlfQ
    This decodes to a referrer of: https://localhost/inbox

    I wonder if this is the issue. Will Piefed accept a session claiming to be from localhost? Will it see this as a potential attack or misconfiguration? Should I reconfigure nginx to drop incoming cookies for the login endpoint?

    I'm grasping at straws.

    When I do a curl request to the feddit.online API endpoint I can log in fine. If I use an invalid password I get the expected error message.

    rimu@rimu-mate2 ~ $ curl --request POST \
  --url https://feddit.online/api/alpha/user/login \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "username": "rimu",
  "password": "valid password"
}'
{"jwt":"some gibberish"}

}'
{"code":400,"message":"incorrect_login","status":"Bad Request"}

    @rimu@piefed.social
    But the logins from Voyager are returning 400 (Bad Request), although the username and password are correct, and to me, the request looks good.

    I posted what is coming into the server. The only anomaly I saw was that the session cookie referrer seemed odd. Can you look at the request I posted? Do you see any reason it would be seen as a bad request?

    The odd thing is that while I get an error 95% of the time trying to log into Voyager, twice it did let me log in. I don't know what was different about those 2 times.

    Nothing gets logged to syslog, any nginx logs, pyfedi.log, or journalctl.
