One user (User:Rupeshsarkar) has requested me to report an issue for him. He can't log in on any Wikimedia sites from his computer or mobile phone. I am attaching the screenshot of the error messages he is getting.

On mobile the global login is failing, but can you successfully log in locally to the wiki on which you opened the login form?

The second issue looks different, seems like a DNS problem with the network.

Bodhisattwa claimed this task.

The user informed me that the issue has been resolved. So, closing this ticket.

Aklapper changed the task status from Resolved to Invalid.Aug 10 2020, 1:35 PM

It would be nice to know how, but thanks for the update!

I asked him about it but he has no idea how this was resolved all of a sudden.
