Webwork Moodle Bridge Error

I have recently created a bridge between moodle and webwork following the instructions on

https://github.com/openwebwork/wwassignment/

I can create the 'webwork-link' block connecting to a course and 'webwork problem set' resources linking to assignments inside of moodle classes. But whenever I try to actually view an assignment from inside of moodle, I get an error:

Error messages

cookieUser = admin and paramUser = moodle-test are different. at /opt/webwork/webwork2/lib/WeBWorK.pm line 317.

I've tried creating different users to test (above error came from user 'moodle-test') but cookieUser is always set to 'admin'. Any ideas about what is wrong?

SOLVED.

In case anyone else is ever bothered by this error.... this is what happens when you are logged into webwork in one tab and simultaneously log into moodle as a different user in another tab and try to access a webwork problem set from moodle as that user.

Messed up cookies ensue.
