Twitter & Google login not working any more

Soporte

Hello, after updating to the latest version of Discourse earlier today, the OAuth login with Twitter / Google (unsure about others) is not working any more. I can see the usual success text for a second and then it refreshes to “We’re sorry there was a problem authorising your account” (apologies if not 100% accurate translating from Spanish). How can I troubleshoot / fix the problem please?

Many thanks

Arturo

Can you try updating to latest? Is this the same thing @falco?

Hello

Thanks for getting back to me. I’m on v2.4.0.beta2. I understand I am on the latest then?

Kind regards,

Arturo

Hello. Well, something must have happened with cookies, I didn’t think to try after clearing cookies, or even with a different browser. So, apologies, that did the trick.

Hi again. I thought clearing out cookies had fixed the issue but I’m getting the same behaviour on my iPhone. None of the “social login” options works. I tried to clear the cookies but it didn’t work. Some other users report the same effect. Any suggestions please?

We have no other reports of issues here, so perhaps something with your Discourse configuration is incorrect? Did you double check the howto topics on setting up Twitter and Google logins?

Thanks for replying. It has been working for nearly 3 years now. All I did was upgrading to the latest version from the most recent previous one. Is there a way of troubleshooting it? It is true that it is only affecting a few users including myself.

Kind regards, Arturo

Ahora veo algo similar. Una instalación funcional donde el inicio de sesión de Twitter simplemente dejó de funcionar para mí como administrador. No estoy seguro si esto está afectando a todos los usuarios o solo a mí.\n\nEl error que obtengo al intentar iniciar sesión es “Ocurrió un error al iniciar la autorización. Por favor, inténtalo de nuevo.”, lo cual no es muy descriptivo.\n\nParece que una solicitud POST a https://discourse.wicg.io/auth/twitter se está redirigiendo a /auth/failure?message=request_error. Borrar las cookies de Twitter no pareció ayudar.
