user root not found in htpasswd

Lately VNC remote is unable to connect to VM's. I completely cleared the browser (Safari) of cookies and history, but on restart I was was still logged into unRaid. When I try to logout, the following errors occur. You can see where I reset the browser.

If I use a different browser, I can both logout AND connect to VM's with VNC remote. This has happened before, but I'm running out of alternative browser options.

 

Any ideas to what is going on? I'm hoping the solution to *user "root" not found* fixes the VNC issue and so on.

Did you see this thread?

 

 

I don't use Safari for Unraid any more because of issues with it that Apple probably won't fix. I use Firefox as my default instead. I also use Chrome and Brave. In fact I'm liking Brave more and more.

Assuming the error is to be suppressed on logout, the question is then why can't I logout.

 

Safari is used solely for unRaid, as it's otherwise unused and unaltered. I don't have to worry about a conflicting customization or plugin. Brave looks interesting, I'm certainly a fan of it's content payment model.
