Title: Sign in to Gerrit with GitHub-Account - possible?
Post by: Massa on January 14, 2017, 04:29:41 AM
Hi everybody,

it should in principal be possible to sign in to Gerrit with a GitHub account or not?
At least there is a link at the gerrit sign in page for this: http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/login/%23%2Fq%2Fstatus%3Aopen?id=gerrit-oauth-provider_-github-oauth (http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/login/%23%2Fq%2Fstatus%3Aopen?id=gerrit-oauth-provider_-github-oauth)
When I click on it and sign in to my GitHub Account, I only see a "404 - this is not the web page you are looking for"???

Is it (currently / no longer) possible to use a GitHub account or am I missing something?

Not possible since the oauth method used there was deprecated (quite some time ago).

In fact all oauth providers should fail there. I believe the Gerrit instance would need to be updated.

Then at least the links at the page should IMHO be removed  :-\

I use an Ubuntu Launchpad ID now - but it took me a bit of time to find out that the problem does not exist at my side but on the server side...  ::)
