Thanks for reporting. This looks like Ipsilon (the OIDC IDP) isn't replying correctly to oidc-register. I'll try to reproduce it, can you check that ipsilon is running properly? It should be at http://ipsilon.tinystage.test.

[keestux]

This all happens during the first time bringing up auth. After the failure auth is removed and deleted. So now Ipsilon (aka auth) is not running.

[abompard]

OK, the auth VM boots up fine for me now, could you check with the latest commit please?

[keestux]

@abompard thanks. It looks like that solved it.
