I have been configuring and setting up a cluster on AWX 23.9.0. Occasionally, I am unable to login to the UI for long stretches of time which eventually just seem to go away.

```

I see in those logs the 404 attempt to hit `/api/v2/config` is getting prefixed with `/api/login`.

I can still utilize the API while this happens, and it affects all users.

I’ve tried bouncing the web pod and my DB with no change in behavior.

Some more details I’ve found:

- My last\_login timestamp is incrementing each time I login
- The number of sessions in the DB is increasing on each login

It seems it is a bug in Firefox 143.0: [Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 UI is not working anymore with the latest Firefox 143.0 - Red Hat Customer Portal](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/7131617)

I can confirm. In my case Chromium-based browser do not have this problem. Firefox has, but even after I got the wrong credentials error message I could navigate to other sections of AWX.
