Login cookie not saving on one computer Topic is solved

[dolphin]

On my main computer, palemoon is not saving the login cookie for one particular website (my own development site). It used to work fine on my main computer... and works fine in other browsers on my main computer.

Palemoon saves this login cookie fine on four other computers.

Palemoon saves two other cookies from my development site on my main computer, but not the login cookie. (nothing about the login cookie has changed since it worked fine.)

Under Preferences -> Privacy I have Pale Moon set to Remember History which provides no exception option.

I tried changing it to Use custom settings for history with Allow sites to store cookies and data checked, no exceptions. No change.

When I restarted Pale Moon it was back to Remember history on that dropdown rather than Use custom settings for history.

I tried deleting the two other cookies from the development site, restarted pale moon, and logging in again to the development site. Still the two other cookies are recreated but not the login cookie. Again the login cookie works fine on four other computers with Pale Moon, and on chrome/firefox/edge on my main computer, but not with Pale Moon on my main computer.

Is there a setting that I might have somehow bumped or something that would cause this one login cookie to not be saved from a specific site?

(This is my main computer, and all my other login cookies are working fine with no issue in Pale Moon)

Since we aren't psychic, it would help greatly if you could post troubleshooting information.

Will do next time (sorry!)

The problem is not with my Pale Moon settings it turns out (I thought I had somehow either blocked or corrupted a cookie) -- I just took the dev.domain.com site that I was working on live as domain.com

If I have a login cookie for .domain.com and also .dev.domain.com, if I logout from .dev.domain.com I can't recreate that .dev.domain.com cookie until I logout of the .domain.com site.

Possibly too much caffeine and not enough sleep. Sorry!

No worries! Glad to know you figured out the issue.

For future reference, this stackoverflow answer might provide clarity about the details of sharing cookies between .domain.com and .dev.domain.com:
