Okta Dev Tenant Login Issue After Logout

Hi everyone,

​After logging in to my Okta dev tenant and then logging out, I am unable to log in again.

 

I receive the message: “Unable to sign in. Please contact support for assistance.”

 

However, if I open a new incognito/private window or clear the browser cache, I am able to log in successfully.

 

Has anyone experienced a similar issue with Okta dev tenants?

What could be causing this behavior, and how can I resolve it?

 

Thank you.

    Hello @GayeongS.71429 (Customer)​ , thank you for contacting Okta Community.

     

    If you have access using an incognito window, you may need to clear your cache and cookies in your regular browser.

     

    As general good practice, please make sure to set up MFA (if you haven't already) and avoid disabling the only MFA available for admin users in the org. For more details, please see the following:

    Okta will Require Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to Access the Okta Admin Console

    Frequently Asked Questions on MFA Enforcement for the Admin Console

     

    If you lose access to your org's Admin Console, the only way to resolve this is with a support ticket. Opening a support ticket is a feature available to paid accounts. You can read more about it in the Workforce Identity Cloud Free Trial Account Support Policy Change article.

     

    If you have a paid production account with us, please leverage it to open a case via the support.okta.com site or call the support line (Customer Support Account ID number required). If those options are not available for you despite having a paid account, please contact your Okta Account Executive or Customer Success Manager, and they will be able to engage the Support team on your behalf. 

     

    Unfortunately, if no paid developer or production account is available, the only option left is to sign up for a new free trial or developer account. You may need to use a different email address.

     

    Alternatively, if you do not have a paid account but are interested in getting one, you can contact our Sales team. A paid account could be used to request assistance for a connected free account, but the Sales team would have more details on that. 

     

    Regards.
