Google with android says "Custom scheme URIs are not allowed for 'WEB' client type"

[matonga]

Description

Can't get Google to login with android. It says:

Custom scheme URIs are not allowed for 'WEB' client type.

I'm puzzled by this error because I thought the plugin used some native android library to do the login on android. I must have misconfigured something, at least because many people have succesfully used this plugin before, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

[error] Missing <manifest package=""> attribute in app/src/main

After adding package (removed it on update to capacitor 5, so I dunno what's going on with doctor):

[error] MainActivity .MainActivity is not in manifest package com.visionblo.apps.movilidadandina.
        Please update the packages to be the same.

After replacing .MainActivity with com.visionblo.apps.movilidadandina.MainActivity:

Did npx cap sync after that. Just in case. But I'm still getting the error message.

I also tried with Azure Portal, and... it works great, I can even validate the id_token afterwards in a server:

{
	appId: _(redacted)_,
	authorizationBaseUrl: 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/_(redacted)_/oauth2/v2.0/authorize',
	scope: "openid email",
	accessTokenEndpoint: 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/_(redacted)_/oauth2/v2.0/token',
	resourceUrl: "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/",
	responseType: "code",
	pkceEnabled: true,
	logsEnabled: true,
	android: {
		redirectUrl: 'com.visionblo.apps.movilidadandina://oauth/redirect'
	}
}

I don't understand what am I doing wrong with Google. Anyways, I was using Google as a test, the final version was meant to authenticate against an Azure Portal. Should I close this ticket or leave it open?

Thx for the information. I have a upcoming release myself and will try it myself.
