Cannot login "There was a problem authenticating with GitHub, please try again" #187

Open igormcoelho opened 4 years ago

igormcoelho commented 4 years ago

Hello, my first time using assistant, and I get this message: "There was a problem authenticating with GitHub, please try again". I've tried several times already... any other way to fix this?

I use linux: classroom-assistant_2.0.2_amd64

Then "You are being redirected to the authorized application. If your browser does not redirect you back, please click here to continue."

No strange message on terminal.

" $ classroom-assistant (electron) 'getName function' is deprecated and will be removed. Please use 'name property' instead.

Can you confirm that this is still happening? I am working on a new version and there were (potentially) some issues with Mac OS Big Sur.

Just used release 2.0.3 (currently latest) and experienced the same issue.

As OS, I am using kubuntu 20.04.02 LTS.

I just recognized that this is related to #186.

The fix suggested by @dranidis also worked for me kde. Obviously I also had to fix a mimetype setting (as described here)
