Description
I've tried to reset my password for daniel@heath.cc - the email arrived, the new password was set, but any attempt to login returned Invalid user or password.
I then tried to sign up as a new user, but got the same issue.
I very much doubt it's mistyped as I'm using a password manager.
After this (failed) attempt to sign in, clicking "Lost password" on https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/login results in a redirect to the home page https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ (instead of the "forgot password" page).

Research direction
Reproduce the problem through the login, password-reset, and signup flows at https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/, including the Lost password link after a failed login. Trace each flow from its web entry point; done means reset and newly created passwords allow login and Lost password opens the forgot-password page instead of redirecting home.
