Phabricator (on iPhone) gives login error and incorrectly says that I have disabled cookies

Description

In Phab, I try to log in.
I encounter this mess:
T131697: Phabricator asks to log in but does not show SUL dialog, and traps the user (starting on www.mediawiki.org and ending on m.mediawiki.org?)
After a login try on the MediaWiki site, the MediaWiki site gives me a login error in red, and tells me that I have disabled cookies.
This is false.

First, the site is expected to work, not to give me an error, let alone a mess of errors.

Secondly, the site has to be more humble instead of telling me what I "have done" when I have not done it.

It would be nice to correct that.

Thank you.

I have Safari on iOS 9 on iPhone.

Nnemo mentioned this in T131697: Phabricator asks to log in but does not show SUL dialog, and traps the user (starting on www.mediawiki.org and ending on m.mediawiki.org?).Apr 9 2016, 8:18 PM

So this is the MediaWiki login issue and T131697 is the Phabricator login clarification?

No. The issue here is about the login error and the wrong message about the cookies.

The other task has a scenario that, at least sometimes, gives the issue here.

Nobody else has managed to reproduce this in the last 2 years, so I am unfortunately closing this task. :-/
