Bug description

I encountered an application error while logging in via Gitpod Flex. The page displayed an error message indicating a failure with the removeChild operation in the DOM.

Screenshot -

gitpod.mp4

Steps to reproduce

  • Navigate to Gitpod.
  • Attempt to log in using Gitpod Flex.
  • Observe the error message displayed on the page.

Workspace affected

No response

Expected behavior

The login process should complete successfully, and the dashboard should load without errors.

Example repository

No response

Anything else?

This might be a case when a workspace is active in Gitpod Classic and you are trying to login to Gitpod Flex

Hey @JiyaGupta-cs! Thanks for reaching out. I'm trying to help you.

Would you be able to retry with Chrome extensions being disabled, please? If that works for you, I'd be happy to identify which browser extension isn't properly working with Gitpod. If you then could list the extensions you're normally using, pease?

Yes, you seem right @AlexTugarev
I tried disabling all my extensions and I was able to login properly
After that I tried to turn on my extensions one by one and login each time after doing that
And I figured out Selenium Click Recorder (RPA bot), this was the extension which prevented me from logging in.
If I turn it off I am able to login and vice versa.
Here you go!
