Sorry, there was an error authorizing your account

Can you give a little more detail in what was wrong on the other end so people looking for this error might use this to fix their issues?

I’m one of those, authorizing discourse against mattermost and I’m a little stuck with a similar error:

Started GET "/auth/oauth2_basic/callback?code=<redacted>&state=<redacted>" for <IPv4> at 2020-02-07 13:07:46 +0000
(oauth2_basic) Setup endpoint detected, running now.
(oauth2_basic) Callback phase initiated.
(oauth2_basic) Authentication failure! invalid_credentials: OAuth2::Error,

Processing by Users::OmniauthCallbacksController#failure as HTML
  Parameters: {"message"=>"invalid_credentials", "origin"=>"https://<discourse_FQDN>/login", "strategy"=>"oauth2_basic"}

Thanks,

Hi there,

not anymore, I´m afraid … we had a call with one of the eam guys, and during the call he had a big revelation about what he did wrong. The bad thing is, that he never told me exactly what that was :frowning:

Sorry dude…
