I must be blind or something… :see_no_evil_monkey: Cannot find discourse_id_client_id and discourse_id_client_secret in the configuration of my sites. Only Enable Discourse ID. :man_shrugging: Any idea?

Yes, that was it! Until now I had ProxyPass /.well-known ! which I changed to ProxyPass /.well-known/acme-challenge ! Maybe this should be added to the howto (which I’m unable to find at the moment…) for setting up self-hosted Discourse instances? RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https" Proxy…

I did enable enable_discourse_id and got an error (in German): enable_discourse_id: Du musst die Discourse-ID-Anmeldedaten („discourse_id_client_id“ und „discourse_id_client_secret“) konfigurieren, bevor du diese Einstellung aktivierst. It says that I need to configure discourse_id_client_id and…

Odd. You might try upgrading and then filling a bug report. Are you behind cloudflare or other reverse proxy that might deny the discourse server from connecting to your server? I’m pretty sure that I’d your behind cloudflare your won’t be able to make it work.

I think pfaffman tried to explain that while the error says that those settings need to be configured before enabling the setting, it’s not you but the software that should fill them. Maybe Discourse ID fails to activate on my instance can provide some ideas for what else you could try.

Sounds like it was an issue with the reverse proxy setup like I expected [이미지] Discourse ID fails to activate on my instance I now activated the SiteSetting.force_http n the DEV instance and discourse ID works fine. Thus I will also deploy Discourse ID on our PROD instance ( forum.netzwissen.de ). …

[이미지] pfaffman: Try turning on force_https. That’s a common problem with a reverse proxy since discourse can’t tell that it’s https force_https is turned on since the beginning. When I first logged into the new instance I installed yesterday it asked me right away if I want to turn on force_…

That’s my best guess. How did you turn on force https

[이미지] pfaffman: How did you turn on force https In the admin area with the web browser. Should this be done on the console? Like rails r "SiteSetting.force_https=true" Just tried. Seemed to work, as it did not give any feedback on the console. But I still do not see two new settings (in th…
