Authorising Toastify fails to complete

[maxthiel]

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

After login through a browser window, you should be redirected to Toastify or Spotify without problem.

ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR

After authorising Toastify, you get redirected to an unreachable page at http://localhost/auth_redirect.html

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE BEHAVIOUR

• Install v1.11.1 of Toastify
• Update Spotify to the latest release
• Launch Spotify then Toastify
• Follow the Login flow, Authorize Toastify
• Observe the http://localhost/auth_redirect.html unreachable page

Hi @maxthiel. Is the issue just the page being unreachable or is the authorization not completing successfully? In other words, are you able to see the album arts on the toast after the login/authorization?

The /auth_redirect.html page is just a low effort confirmation page, so I can easily move that here on Github. Accessing it through the local server was the first thing that crossed my mind since I was already using it for the auth flow.

[maxthiel]

Hi,

I think the auth worked, as I'm now seeing the cover in the toast, and I don't get a request for auth any more. Not sure if it's because my :80 port might already be used by some other program, so you might have the possibility to use a custom port for the local server?

Thanks!

[aleab]

Yep, I could use a custom port, but not a random one unfortunately since it needs to be registered beforehand on the Spotify's dev page. I'm currently trying to re-design the auth flow to to be able to use a random port.

I'm still seeing this behavior. After the failure described above, everything works fine. But the credentials aren't saved, so each time I start Toastify again, Chrome is opened to authenticate my Spotify account.

[MaxwellRU]

@Goro2030 same here

[WolfganP]

Same behavior here. Toastify seems to work anyways, so maybe is not a critical page to display.

same issue here

@Goro2030 I had the same problem but I think I've been able to solve it. I observed that the Spotify WebAPI indicator was red even after approving the authentication page and that there was no spotify-token.sec file in %LocalAppData%\Toastify. After unchecking the Read-only attribute of the %LocalAppData%\Toastify folder the spotify-token.sec file is created successfully and the WebAPI indicator turns green. After this I don't get the auth request again, cover-art is displayed in the Toast and the Paused indicator is no longer persistent as before.

Hope this can help.

EDIT: Running Toastify as administrator accomplishes the same thing. A cleaner solution I guess.

EDIT2: Read-only is reapplied on reboot. Running as administrator once isn't enough either as it seems Toastify modifies spotify-token.sec each time it starts. Checking the Run this program as an administrator checkbox under the Compatibility tab of the .exe works permanently though.

[Goro2030]

Tried what you suggested, but I'm still getting:

localhost refused to connect.

I don't think that matters. I think that redirect is only supposed to be a local confirmation page, it doesn't actually do anything. The important thing is that the spotify-token.sec is created (or updated). Unfortunately it seems like the token still expires after some time so the Toast stops working. It will however be refreshed next time you start Toastify without requiring a new authorization.

[Goro2030]

It is important seems to ... as I'm being asked for the Facebook authorization each time I start Toastify....
