Closed: Will Not/Can Not fix
Reopen Issue

Just got an email for a page change to https://stg.fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Trackers . This URL should not contain "stg" since it makes it impossible to log into the Wiki. It works if I simply take out "stg". This happened once before, a few weeks back, and I was only able to deal with it this time since I remembered the suggestion to remove "stg" that someone gave me on IRC last time. Since then I have gotten many Wiki page change emails but this is the first one having the same issue again.

In fact, I got an email just yesterday for a change to the exact same page, except the URL in that email did not include "stg".

So, to clarify:

fedoraproject.org/wiki -> production wiki
stg.fedoraproject.org/wiki -> staging wiki

The production and staging versions are completely seperate. From time to time we take the production database and sync it over to staging, but it's still seperate and can diverge from then. They are different installs with different databases that use different account systems (the prod and stg account systems are also completely seperate instances). If you are trying to login to the staging wiki with your production password, it's unlikely to work.

To login with staging, go to https://accounts.stg.fedoraproject.org and reset your password to something you know and use that to login to the stg wiki.

If you don't care about stg wiki changes, you should clear any watches you have for the stg wiki.

The page you note was changed in stg by @kparal and that same page in prod was changed by @adamwill

Anyhow, I'd say: reset your stg password so you can login to stg wiki, and clear any watches or the like.

Does that all make sense?

I use the same fp.org password for accounts.fp.org, admin.fp.org, fp.org, and id.fp.org. I have a different, older, password in my browser's PM for id.stg.fp.org. If I try to log into id.stg.fp.org by using the newer one that works everywhere else, that doesn't work either. If I try to reset it, it redirects me to accounts.fp.org which already uses the newer password, implying that it wants to use the newer password that failed. So I'm at a loss as far as being able to log into the stg wiki.

If I try to reset it, it redirects me to accounts.fp.org which already uses the newer password

What is the second 'it' here? https://accounts.stg.fedoraproject.org/ ?

That shouldn't redirect you to accounts anywhere...

"It" was the page that the Wiki URL sent me to after clicking on "Login", then I clicked on "Forgot password?" and it sent me to https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/forgot-password/ask . When I tried going to https://accounts.stg.fedoraproject.org/ instead and clicking on "Forgot Password or OTP?", it asks me to enter username (I entered "robatino", which AFAIK is the only one I've ever used) and it says it will send me a password reset email, which hasn't arrived.

Never mind, I finally got the password reset email and it seems to work.
