Example app isn't working

[stefanbuck]

Hi,

I wanted to create my second probot app with this generator. I followed this steps. For testing purposes I enabled all permissions as you suggested. I made all required changes to .env and link my a test repo with my app.

After running npm run dev I see the following request an all respond with a 20x status.

• GET /app/installations
• POST /installations/:installation_id/access_tokens
• GET /installation/repositories

So far so good. If I create a new issue, I just get a 400 response and I have no idea where this is coming from. Looks like a POST request to / is failing.

19:49:59.237Z  INFO http: POST / 400 - 1.84 ms (id=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX)
19:49:59.242Z ERROR probot: Bad Request

I'm using node v10.3.0 and npm 6.1.0.

Looks like a duplicate of https://github.com/probot/probot/issues/607 and https://github.com/probot/probot/issues/568

Can you double check that your Webhook Secret is set on your GitHub App settings, and in your local .env

[stefanbuck]

Indeed, looks related to the mentioned issues. Sorry, I didn't think about searching for the issue there. I was conficed that it's a generator issue.

I changed my webhook secret right after setting up the app and updated the .env as well. This shouldn't effect my certificate I guess, right?

Ohh man, I used smee.io redelivery feature to retirgger a webhook from an issue that I created before updating my secret 🤦‍♂️ After creating a new issue it works.

Glad you got it working @stefanbuck!
