When I'm trying to connect Git I'm stuck in the screen as shown in attached screenshot (screenshot 1). Upon reload I'm stuck as shown in screenshot 2. Please help! @celest hamlet @desert roost

Hi, I have the same problem. I can connect with GitHub (see the print screen) but the Amplication does not store the connection. If I press new resource, redirects to the page, to connect with GitHub, If I press the button "connect", popup a new window, asks for my credentials and then it presents on the pop-up window, GitHub my account settings. Amplication does not store the GitHub session.

Ok guys, I found the issue .... on the tutorial "https://docs.amplication.com/running-amplication-platform/connect-server-to-github/", you need to mention that on the GitHub post-installation configuration section, you need to have checked the function "Redirect on update". Otherwise, it does not work on Amplication. I lost a lot of time, to find out it.

@narrow fog so sorry and thank you so much, would you like to open an issue and submit a PR for it?

#

Hey @narrow fog , @celest hamlet even after checking the function "Redirect on update", I'm still stuck at the same place(as shown in 2nd screenshot). What to do? Create a new github app from scratch again?

Also, in step 11 of the setup, we have to put under {state}? Kindly let me know! @celest hamlet
GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_URL='https://github.com/apps/[your-github-username]-amplication-local/installations/new?state={state}'

nothing

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 8:11 AM

#

Okay. What about the issue that's still persisting? Kindly let me know what should I do?

celest hamlet Oct 9, 2023, 8:16 AM

#

our team will reply soon.

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 8:31 AM

#

Thanks @celest hamlet 👍. I've DMed you kindly check when possible 😊

#

Hey @narrow fog & @paper pawn could you provide a screenshot of the rest of the Github Application settings, just too make sure the rest is aligned with the documentation aswell.

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 9:32 AM

#

paper pawn Also, in step 11 of the setup, we have to put under {state}? Kindly let me know!...

State can stay like that indeed, but make sure that [your-github-username]-amplication-local this part matches the expected github application name

GG @severe dagger, you just advanced to level 6!

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 9:33 AM

#

should be similar to this with their respective github username difference in the top text box:

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 9:35 AM

#

Hi @severe dagger , these are my settings

#

Only difference is the homepage URL port number, where its 3000 for you and 3001 for me(as mentioned in setup doc)

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 9:36 AM

#

yeah correct, that shouldn't matter!

#

Could you maybe make a screenshot of the .env.local files on at least the amplication-server side of things & of course partially mask the secrets so they can't be deferred.

#

This part can be quite error prone: "Click Generate a private key, download, open the generated certificate, add \n at the end of each line except the last line and join all lines to obtain a single line string"

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 9:40 AM

#

Give me 2 mins sending a screenshot right away!

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 9:42 AM

#

Allright, in the mean time ill try an do a setup from scratch to identify a potential issue.

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 9:51 AM

#

@severe dagger The image is blurred but the params set are the ones mentioned in the setup file hope its understandable else let me know will find some other way!

celest hamlet Oct 9, 2023, 9:52 AM

#

It should be in one line

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

what about -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- and -----END PRIVATE KEY-----, all in one line?

celest hamlet Oct 9, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

Yes

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 10:04 AM

#

so basicly at the end of every new-lin you have now place an \n and then add the new-line after the original and repeat until you added the -----END PRIVATE KEY----- after the original line, after which the \n isnt needed because there is no new line.

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 10:06 AM

#

I got everything in single line still facing the same issue! Okay trying to add\n after each line and trying again!

GG @paper pawn, you just advanced to level 3!

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 10:17 AM

#

Did what you suggested @severe dagger still I'm getting

#

When I click on install for selected repository the popup shows "Please wait..." and stick there. When I check separately on GitHub apps the above screenshot shows the status

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 11:29 AM

#

did you restart the services after changing the variables?

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 11:33 AM

#

Yup I did

#

All 4 : docker, server,client,git

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 11:36 AM

#

Can we maybe in the window that said ‘please wait’ & client, see in the console what network calls happend and if we see any errors there?

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 11:40 AM

#

Sure sending a screenshot. @severe dagger please check

#

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 11:44 AM

#

And than the network part of the tab with the request in it if possible

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 11:45 AM

#

#

Note: I started all the services just now

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 11:47 AM

#

Iss there anything in the response part of this sub tab

#

not sure if this is the correct network call though

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 11:50 AM

#

tried again, there are alot of network calls going on

#

As u asked to add newline Ive done the following

#

Continued until END OF PRIVATE KEY

#

Butt response is empty

#

What am I missing? @severe dagger

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 12:07 PM

#

paper pawn As u asked to add newline Ive done the following

from what i see in this part it seems like the they're still on seperate lines, should be like this:

GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY="-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n[line2]\n[line3]\n[line-..]\n-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

#

In a smaller windows it might still seem like multiple lines, but it need to be on ONE row

paper pawn Oct 9, 2023, 12:10 PM

#

Got you!

severe dagger Oct 9, 2023, 12:11 PM

#

So lets say this is the private key normally:

#

it would become this long string:

#

to be fair, it could be made clearer in the part where you actually have to concatonate the string
