            Bug ID: 52568
           Summary: login to enwiki displayed a wikimediafoundation.org
                    CentralLogin failure
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: wmf-deployment
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

On a test browser instance I visited https://en.wikipedia.org, and clicked Log
in. I used a WMF test account (SpageTest AC 0618-1) that I probably hadn't used
since June.

Login displayed an unexpected failure from
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:CentralLogin/start?token=TokenHereBlahblah
, "No such special page".  I was actually logged in to enwiki.  Note the URL
above is CentralLogin/start, not CentralAutoLogin/start, I think I copied and
pasted it from the browser location bar.

I logged out and repeated the login, with Firebug active.  This time I logged
in fine. There was still a 404 in the Net tab but it didn't display as a
failure and it was from 
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:CentralAutoLogin/checkLoggedIn?wikiid=enwikisource&type=1x1&from=enwiki

I logged out, cleared my cookies, and went back to enwiki and logged in; this
time there were no requests to wikimediafoundation.org

Maybe this is a remnant of some old-style login cookies.
