Cannot log in

[null-von-sushi]

Log in does not work.

• I enter my instance
• A webview shows up
• I enter my login information and click okay
• Webview disappears, and I am back on the screen where I filled out my instance

[vinzv]

I can confirm that with a Pleroma instance.

[null-von-sushi]

Oh, yeah same (I'm on explosion.party). Thing is, I assumed it should not matter as Pleroma aims to be compatible w. mastodon? I know that tusky on android worked without any issues, and that too is branded a 'mastodon' app.

[vinzv]

Yep, same API calls etc. Tusky works fine on that instance.

[tanghus]

This might be the same I found in #40

[tanghus]

I closed #40 and continue here instead.

I'm not sure if this is related.

If I start Tooter in a console, I am prompted for the address of a Mastodon instance. I then enter my credentials, but get a -username-or-password error.

Inspecting the output in the console, it shows that Tooter tries to connect to mastodon.social instead of the instance I use; freeradical.zone.

The - slightly shortened - output:

Thanks for fixing. Do you know if/when this will hit either the Jolla store, or Open Repo, as I do not know how to compile Sailfish apps :/

[tanghus]

I have a binary you can have.

[null-von-sushi]

That would be even better, thanks :) Where would I be able to download this?

[tanghus]

Try https://cloud.tanghus.net/s/PXjqpEexFxS4WJS

[null-von-sushi]

Thanks. Unfortunately that version does not actually let my type anything into the login/instance field. It is recognized as a text field, but keyboard presses do not cause characters to appear.

Running harbour-tooter from terminal gives this output:

Actually, I have uninstalled Sailfish OS for now, so I won't be needing the file. Thanks though. Hopefully other users may benefit from the bugfix once a new version hits openrepo / Jolla Store.

[null-von-sushi]

Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but I still cannot log on. The Web authentication website does pop up, but entering my login info just makes it vanish and I am back at the part where I input my instance URL.

I ran harbor-tootler in a terminal and this was the output, hope it helps.

harbor-tooter.log

[null-von-sushi]

As a workaround, I managed to get it working myself. I have no idea why it works. I changed some really small unrelated stuff (a grammar mistake in the login screen and the mastodon instance example, as well as a print-to-output line that just mentions the client_id. Nothing that actually changes the login code) and now it works?

For those that have problems try downloading this repository and compiling it yourselves, or if that does not work you can try the exact same RPM that I used if you want.

[schaueho]

@dysk0 I think either this issue should be re-opened or a new one created. I had seem the same issue in the past but had somehow managed to login once, but was unable to do so on a new device. My logs looked different, though, I didn't get a 500 but a 400 status error (client error).

@null-von-sushi I can confirm that somehow your version works, whereas the current version (1.0.3) from openrepos.net does not (in fact, I had tried multiple versions going back to 0.2.7).

[null-von-sushi]

It worked for me to log in, but honestly it's kind of a mess to use: Clicking on a profile link sometimes opens up completely unrelated profiles and embedded images didn't work a lot of times.

Still, first step would be to make logins work properly.

Unfortunately I am not really a developer, otherwise I'd fork it seeing as this doesn't seem to be maintained anymore. As far as I understand, this is GPL2 so theoretically anyone can just continue working on it...

[dysk0]

Hi there... I was away for some time. Sorry. Can you confirm that this is still an issue? It works for mastodon.social

[carlosgonz0]

I have mastodon.social and is working good to log in.

[carlosgonz0]

Maybe Tooter has issues to log in with some instances using qtwebkit5.212 from leszek?
