Not able to login into forums with Discord

I am having an issue signing into our forum (forums.thecookout.org) after signing out.

After authenticating through Discord, I’m being sent to the following URL:

https://forums.thecookout.org/auth/failure?message=csrf_detected&strategy=discord

and getting the following error:

Authorization timed out, or you have switched browsers. Please try again.

I’m not entirely sure what’s going on and could use any help.

Thanks in advance!

How can I change it from cmd/Docker?

I am unable to get to the GUI.

I have attempted that twice and am still receiving the error.

To further add to what I’m seeing, when I log into the Docker image and view the logs

/var/www/discourse/log/production.log

The error I’m seeing is:

Apparently, the issue was stemming from using https://github.com/featheredtoast/discourse-plugin-discord-auth for Discord authentication instead of the built-in method.

Not sure when it was added, but using it now and everything is working smoothly!

Thank you all for your assistance!

Oh, that’d do it. My branch was the original repo for the plugin, and hasn’t been updated to allow for core’s plugin, like the repo under discourse was.

I’ll update that to mirror discourse’s repo as well. Sorry for the trouble, and well sleuthed!

Hi, maybe this isn’t the right topic (don’t know if I should open a different one) but I’m experiencing this issue with the LDAP Auth plugin. Can it be related?
