Error: API returned the following error: 'The login module requires a POST request'

Description

When I try to log into our private wiki I get the following error.
This might have to do with a proxy problem - we get those a lot from work. If so, a clearer error msg would be good.

Can't access this from home either, so not a proxy issue. We are using Mediawiki 1.28.1 - is AutoBrowser compatible with that? Anyone else having this problem?

Hi. AWB is compatible with MediaWiki 1.28.1. I had a simular problem, but it is resolved. [[T163321]]
