- Error: `Your credentials were correct, but the server failed to set a cookie. You appear to have deployed over HTTP. Make sure you have disabled secure cookies.`
- Cause: You have deployed Airbyte to an insecure (non-HTTPS) host, but you haven't turned off secure cookies.
- Fix: Deploy Airbyte again and set the `--insecure-cookies` flag. For example, `abctl local install --host example.com --insecure-cookies`.

FYI there was a recent fix for --insecure-cookies. Latest version should now be working. See - #61586
