I've been spending time today trying to work in the Editor & Admin Tools section of AMO and ever since the CDNetworks update, I'm seeing tons of failures including: - -261 errors when trying to download selected add-ons - Claims of invalid passwords (see screenshot) - pwd is autofilled by Firefox and hasn't changed, I can simply press login again and it works! - Loss of login credentials (login cookie is forgotten nearly immediately and forces you to login in again and again and again)
Mike, do you know why those would be happening? Matthew, time to revert?

There is a hidden session variable in forms so when they POST they verify that the user has a valid session. The login form doesn't yet have a session started, so this is probably happening in the case where a login form has a cached formKey and it posts to the login handler and it thinks it's an illegal login attempt.
Login worked fine for me first time I tried it.
How come we don't see this behind the Netscaler cache? Is this intermittent? I'm able to login (from two different computers).
I haven't been able to reproduce it.

FWIW, I sporadically see this too. Note that I tested this quite heavily over in bug 450745 comment 15, so I'm not sure what happened since...
I spoke with Jeremy and we found that mrapp512 was not giving consistent results. Narrowed it down to eAccelerator caching the old config file from before the server IPs were changed. It was fixed and put back into rotation. This could have been the cause of improper behavior (and then multiplied as it was cached at the next two levels -- NS, CDN).
No longer using CDNetworks so any issue related to them is gone.

I haven't seen the login problem today so, I'm going to mark this VERIFIED.
