Linkedin returns "Problem authenticating" even when it's returning the token about ng-cordova-oauth HOT 27 CLOSED

So you get an $http response that contains the access token and a problem authenticating message?

Are you using ngCordovaOauth or the version I bundled with ngCordova? Also any code you can share would be great.

It is a possibility the API changed, but it is unlikely. Have to see whats up.

Thanks,

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I am using the one bundled with ngCordova. I cannot trace the $http response, as it always resolves to .error() with all parameters empty. However, in the proxy, I see the correct (working) token sent by linkedin.

I created a new, blank project following your instructions here http://ionicframework.com/blog/oauth-ionic-ngcordova/ but it doesn't work

I could send my app credentials via private message if that's ok for you

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Code would be preferred. I can use my own credentials to test.

I put my index.html here https://gist.github.com/MarcSallent/c67a49852bf5d5d5d625
and the app.js here https://gist.github.com/MarcSallent/15e91d0cce8fb757c58b

Thanks

Your app.js is very basic and seems correct. I'll see about testing this tonight to see if maybe the API changed.

Hello!
Were you able to take a look at it?
Thanks!

I haven't had a chance to look at it. Been very busy, sorry. Starting tomorrow (2/10) I'll be away from my computer for about two weeks.

I just tested again and had no issues. Can you try using the ngCordovaOauth rather than the version I have bundled with ngCordova?

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Closing this ticket since I cannot reproduce the problem and have not heard from the reporter.

Hi guys,

i have the same problem using linkedIn. Did you look into ?
When i try to login with linkedin, the http.post request always go into the error function.

Here is my controller :
$cordovaOauth.linkedin('PUBLIC', 'SECRET', ['r_emailaddress', 'r_network'], '0987654321')
.then(function (result) {
console.log('Result', JSON.stringify(result));
}, function (error) {
console.log('Error', error);
});

My log :
Problem authenticating

And after adding log into ng-cordova.js, status equal 0 and there is no data.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I don't normally request for this, but can you share with me the clientId and clientSecret you're using?

I want to try to use my code to test against your registered application to see if it is an issue with how you configured your app in the LinkedIn dashboard.

When we're done, you can delete your app and register a new set of keys.

Regards,

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I don't use email, so you'd have to put your keys in this issue thread.

Like I said, just regenerate your keys when we're done to prevent unauthorized use.

Regards,

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I've got them. I'll test it out tonight when I'm home and circle back.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Thank you a lot for your time.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I tried with your keys, scope, and state. I had no problems.

I have to leave this issue closed because I cannot reproduce the issue.

Regards,

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I'm experiencing this as well actually, has anyone solved it?

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Can you share how to reproduce?

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Sure @nraboy . I created a new ionic app ionic start myApp sidemenu. Changed the following for the app:

• Ionic version updated to: 1.0.0-rc.0 : ionic lib update
• Added the last angular.module('starter', ['ionic', 'starter.controllers', 'ngCordovaOauth']) to app.js
• Added the $cordovaOauth to the controller.js .controller('AppCtrl', function($scope, $ionicModal, $timeout, $cordovaOauth)
• Added ng-cordova-oauth.min.js to www/js
• Added the InAppBrowser plugin
• Added the ios platform
• Added <script src="js/ng-cordova-oauth.min.js"></script> to index.html underneath cordova.js inclusion
• Replace the code to the boilerplate doLogin method in controllers.js with:

$cordovaOauth.linkedin('KEY', 'SECRET', ['r_basicprofile', 'r_emailaddress'], 'aowiejfoiewj').then (function (result) {
        console.log("Response Object -> " + JSON.stringify(result));
      }, function(error) {
        console.log("Error -> " + error);
      });

• Running using ionic emulate ios -l -c in iPhone 6 / iOS 8.1 simulator.

Pretty sure that's it. I have a LinkedIn app but nothing strange there.

My problem is that I can access the LinkedIn login screen but upon pressing "Allow and Sign In" button, I get the NOT FOUND webpage and the error callback logs "Problem authenticating".

Note that I DID get my password wrong the first time I tried to log into LinkedIn (shouldn't matter but I'll state it anyway). My LinkedIn account is both an admin and developer for the app. My permissions in the app settings are checked off as 'r_basicprofile', 'r_emailaddress'.

Thanks for the attention!

Added <script src="js/ng-cordova-oauth.min.js"></script> to index.html underneath cordova.js inclusion

This is a concern. You should be placing ng-cordova-oauth.min.js above cordova.js not underneath.

Also I encourage you to not use live-reload. It is known to have issues with the InAppBrowser plugin. Instead you should do ionic build ios and then open the project with Xcode. From there you should be testing on the device or simulator.

Hopefully that helps.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Ok I'm going to give it a shot. Thanks Nic.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Hey @nraboy thanks for the suggestions. It works now that I have taken your advice. However, I'm still seeing the Not Found webpage (/callback) before it brings me back to my app. But this is a separate issue.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

There is a race condition with providers that have a secret key because the POST requests that happen may not finish before the callback loads. In this scenario a page not found comes up without hurting functionality.

I've not been able to solve this problem, but I'm open to suggestions. For implicit grant types, the problem does not exist.

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Got the same problem yesterday. Running the app with browserify was leading to a CROSS error :

XMLHttpRequest cannot load linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/accessToken.
Origin http://192.168.180.139:8101 is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.
console-via-logger.js:173

and Problem authenticating returned by ng-cordova-oauth.

Works like a charm if you build the ionic project and run it on your device.

I'm experiencing a similar
error - upon submitting email and pass through the login dialog I instantly get "webView:didFailLoadWithError - -1004"

from ng-cordova-oauth.

tried with github:

2015-09-19 01:31:48.204 github-mobile[6087:23151801] THREAD WARNING: ['InAppBrowser'] took '75.247070' ms. Plugin should use a background thread.

2015-09-19 01:32:00.632 github-mobile[6087:23151801] webView:didFailLoadWithError - -1004: Could not connect to the server.

at least auth works

from ng-cordova-oauth.

Yea the InAppBrowser plugin is a bit wonky. Works though :-)

from ng-cordova-oauth.

I am getting this error after getting token and trying to access data with that token.
{"errorCode":0,"message":"Mutiple authentication schemes detected","requestId":"XXXXX","status":401,"timestamp":10110101010}
can you find what is wrong with it ?
