Redirect after login with AppId fails....

[jthomas]

I've run through all the steps successfully until local web app section (https://github.com/IBM/ibm-cloud-functions-refarch-web-application#setup-of-local-web-application).

Running ng serve and opening http://localhost:4200 I can see the login button.

Clicking the button redirects me to...

https://eu-gb.appid.cloud.ibm.com/oauth/v4/8a86ad51-2e52-49cf-b743-fede9dcf6a5f/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=6c2d8b1d-af68-4f75-9430-dbd3146c90ea&redirect_uri=https://service.eu.apiconnect.ibmcloud.com/gws/apigateway/api/9a1a94007233b92cb29da1d865b76477d7ba0c46629feb061ed4bc4454091059/login/login

...which is the login screen for App Id. Using the username and password provided from the demo script (user@demo.email, verysecret) - I get redirected to (https://service.eu.apiconnect.ibmcloud.com/gws/apigateway/api/9a1a94007233b92cb29da1d865b76477d7ba0c46629feb061ed4bc4454091059/login/login?code=AwkJQjdhwpdZwqIEwpsJOsOaFsKCwoVvwr8zPxE4w4LDrsKaKMKXw7EuwqHCmsOKwq3ChcOEwpzCqcKww78ZaGvCljPDqcO3WyTDocOHw57Dr8KNPsOdGnrCtVQMBFrCvsKHOsOVBcKZw67Dm8K6BMKdPUZ8woR7wqfClsKrf8KiLHXDrE7DhzbDgsO3wo0-ZlHDqsOsCVTDs8OYAMOFc8OMw4bDlwfDrh8Nw6FmwqnCiMObwpFuwq05w511ZFllwo0vJsKEWnvDiG5yRFZjbTkDJsOWwozCm8KBw6XDucKrw5B3ZMKxJRLDiMOUOsKcwqXDmMO2w6cOwpnDgcOYwrfCq1YxDGDDlkdVTMOOw6ImFsOSCMKBwoI3w4ZNw54Fw4ow) which does not exist.

Shouldn't this be re-directing me to the localhost:4200 in the demo mode?

@jthomas I am unable to replicate this issue. after logging in, I am redirected to http://localhost:4200/home?access_token=blahblahblah&refresh_token=undefined&expires_in=3600&user_name=user@demo.email

[jthomas]

I've tried this again with the same results. Can @mrutkows or @nimicent try to follow these instructions and see if they hit the same issue as me?

I've tried debugging this and think the Swagger used to create the Login APIs is incorrect. AppID is supposed to redirect to a Web Action which then redirects to localhost. Whatever the setup script is doing, the swagger has the web actions config incorrectly configured. Looking at the sample Swagger used in function-login/swagger-login.json it expects the application to run in the us-south, which is incorrect. The changes to the swagger do not take account of the region for one...

[jthomas]

@loafyloaf Can you try setting this up in a new namespace on a non-US region (to replicate having a fresh account like an external developer) and see if this work?

[mrutkows]

@jthomas everything works well up until I attempt "ng serve" and apparently I do not have the angular CLI installed... is this a missing pre-req.?

Manually installed Angular CLI from: https://cli.angular.io/
i.e., $ npm install -g @angular/cli

[mrutkows]

After installing Angular CLI and running ng serve , the application came up and since I was instructed to Open http://localhost:4200 in your browser. I opted to "login using Google" (for grins) and it indicated it had logged me in, but then protected API failed:

and the FB (same):

am I supposed to be logging in this early as it appears there are more scripts to run at this stage BUT since I started (did not launch a separate process) the "server". I need another command line pointed in the same root dir of the cloned project ;)

[mrutkows]

If I indeed open another terminal and invoke the COS script (i.e., $ scripts/setup-object-storage.sh) I get this message:

You can now open index.html but the app does not work yet: https://s3.us-south.objectstorage.softlayer.net/serverlessweb-e64d1c50-0794-4db5-8399-8eeedd47495d/index.html and the pattern instructions say To try the web application, open the URL that you get in the terminal. BUT I get this:

[mrutkows]

attempting to continue (not sure if I should really be accessing any of the URLs the scripts say I should "open") as I still see more instructions... So I ran the last script $ scripts/setup-html-function.sh...

and the resultant URL from this scripts: https://service.us.apiconnect.ibmcloud.com/gws/apigateway/api/2e8784598e7c0d73062088fd120a7f8b2af6e73f1bc40ff224106716a2c27cd0/serverless/web resulted in a blank web page.

[nimicent]

@mrutkows @jthomas Okay so everyone, do we think we need to file a github issue for this on IBM Cloud?

[jthomas]

As neither Matt nor I can get it working following the instructions - there seems to be an issue in the instructions or the repo. I've asked if @loafyloaf can try following the instructions in a different region and clean namespace to replicate the issues. We should start with that.

[nheidloff]

@jthomas is right. The sample only works for us-south. To fix this, the following code needs to be extended: https://github.com/IBM/ibm-cloud-functions-refarch-web-application/blob/master/scripts/setup-login-function.sh#L103

[nimicent]

@nheidloff Thank you. @loafyloaf what do you think about this task?
