Friendica not supported?

[kr428]

I see loma.ml (a Friendica instance I make daily use of) appear in the list of servers but can't connect, just selecting the server and saying "Next" in the login screen will cause a "Missing parameter" message instead of a redirect to the browser for login. Is Friendica supported? Any way to track this down?

This is something the server doesn't like. Please do keep in mind that this app officially only works with Mastodon, though I removed the requirement for short_description field in instance object so people could log into Pleroma instances.

D/MastodonAPIController: [no-auth] Sending request: Request{method=POST, url=https://loma.ml/api/v1/apps, tags={}}
D/MastodonAPIController: [no-auth] Request{method=POST, url=https://loma.ml/api/v1/apps, tags={}} received response: Response{protocol=h2, code=422, message=, url=https://loma.ml/api/v1/apps}
W/MastodonAPIController: [no-auth] Response{protocol=h2, code=422, message=, url=https://loma.ml/api/v1/apps} received error: {"error":"Fehlende Parameter"}

Ah ok, thanks, wasn't aware there's already server communication happening at this point. So I'll ask the Friendica crowd. 🙂

Regarding Pleroma, I also asked them to add support for the short_description field: https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma/-/issues/2865

@grishka I'll check if the update for the Mastodon app is up and test with my Pleroma instance.

@grishka are you saying Log in for friendica now should work? Still seeing the error reported by OP.

What I find interesting is that Log in in Mastodon for iOS works perfectly fine using friendica accounts. Wondering if it is a shortcoming on friendica's side or the Mastodon Android app.

Edit: Curiously signup worked on one instance but not on another. friendica version claiming both instances running same version, same database and post update versions.

Retested and was able to connect friendica account without issues. 2022-12dev. Is this persisting for you @kr428 ?

[kr428]

Hmmm. Tried that on loma.ml which just has been upgraded to some 2022-12 version, error seems to persist?

Can you share which error message you are seeing and could you request logs from your instance admin?

[kr428]

Error message is still "missing parameters" in the frontend without anything else. As for the logs, I'll see whether I can get hold of them.
