Unable to login in local environment

[terumik]

I'm trying to run examples/cloud-run-and-hosting locally, but stuck on login screen. Any help would be appreciated.

What I did:

• Run npm install on root and examples/cloud-run-and-hosting
• Changed the projectId in cloud-run-and-hosting/.firebaserc
• Run firebase init on /cloud-run-and-hosting
• Change the projectId in /cloud-run-and-hosting/config/database.js
• Created /cloud-run-and-hosting/.env GCP_PROJECT: my-firebase-project ADMIN_JWT_SECRET=jwt-token (created by running node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(64).toString('base64'))" # (all users))
• Added the jwt token to cloud-run-and-hosting/server.js
• When I launched the emulator locally, port 8080 was taken. I changed the port in firebase.json to 8081. Along with this, change the port of server.js to 8082 => Could not start up with error
• Changed the port under root/index.ts, root/index.js, and root/firestore.js to 8081
• The emulator and Strapi application started up successfully
• When I tried to visit the login page (http://localhost:8082/admin/auth/login), I was redirected. I tried to register with my existing credentials then reload
• Login page appeared. I tried to login => 500 error and could not log in

Am I missing something? I'm also stuck on deploying the example project to the remote, but I'll try some more and if it doesn't work, I'll ask a separate question later.

Hi @terumik I'll need to give it a run with the change of ports like you are, so I can see how to get it working that way. I'll try in the next few days. In the meantime I have some comments:

You'll probably want to replace the "strapi-connector-firestore": "../../" local dependency with the actual NPM package "strapi-connector-firestore": "^3.0.0-alpha.38". The parent directory isn't available in the Docker build, which will probably be the problem you're encountering?

Changed the port under root/index.ts, root/index.js, and root/firestore.js to 8081

Are you referring to this line below? As you can see the port that it tries to find the emulator on is hard coded.

https://github.com/arrowheadapps/strapi-connector-firestore/blob/02c29765ca761f765a580cf4e49dcada737abffe/src/index.ts#L107

Have you considered just trying to find what process is blocking port 8080 instead, so that you can just run the setup normally?

I tried to login => 500 error and could not log in

Were there any extra details logged in the console corresponding to this error?

Hi Brett,

Thank you for your reply.

Have you considered just trying to find what process is blocking port 8080 instead, so that you can just run the setup normally?

I asked this question because I could not kill the port, but today I ran windows powershell with admin mode and was able to kill the port and able to run the project locally. Sorry for bothering you.

You can close the question, but I will answer your question for your reference. The port I manually changed was

• strapi-connector-firestore/src/index.ts
• lib/index.js
• cloud-run-and-hosting/firebase.json
• test/utils/firestore.js

The error logged in my console was as follows: [2021-08-10T14:22:46.653Z] debug TRANSACTION (read-only): 2 reads.

@terumik no worries, glad it is resolved. Feel free to ask if you have any other issues.
