[BUG] - won’t connect to API #269

Closed byertsy closed 2 months ago

byertsy commented 2 months ago

Description

I had previously installed stash app on my nvidia shield and it connected to my server and worked well.

I then had a computer issue and have had to setup another instance of stash from scratch which came with a new API code.

The app will not connect to the new API code. The rest of the system is setup the same, although traefik is upgraded to v3.0. I input the URL and it accepts this, and on the API page I get a message saying ‘Connected to the server, but needs an API code’. I then input the code and when I press ‘enter’ it just gives me the same message again and does not progress with the setup like it did before.

I have installed the app, and have now reinstalled it, upgrading to the latest update, but it still fails with the same issue.

I’m an idiot - the container is running behind authelia, which it wasn’t before. I assume this would be the issue?

Hi @byertsy, yes, I think Authelia would be the problem here. This app can only authenticate with Stash via the ApiKey HTTP header. Since Authelia is probably not checking that header, I bet it just returns a 401 or 403 back to the app which causes the message you mentioned.

I bet you could write an access control policy in Authelia to bypass Authelia's auth for requests to your Stash server if there's an ApiKey HTTP header going to https://<stash-server>/graphql and let Stash handle checking the api key then.

Yep, that’s exactly what I’ve ended up doing and it works like a charm. 👍
