Dex server failed to start up with the following error: failed to initialize server: server: Failed to open connector oidc: failed to open connector: failed to create connector oidc: failed to get provider: 404 NotFound: Not Found.
Additional Information
It seems latest build with golang 1.25.0 (dex_version=v2.44.0 go.version=go1.25.0 go.os=linux go.arch=amd64) breaks the dex server to start up, older version 1.24.3 (dex_version=v2.43.1 go.version=go1.24.3 go.os=linux go.arch=amd64) is working fine, I also rebuilt the dex server with latest golang version 1.24.11 (dex_version=8ab3-dirty go.version=go1.24.11 go.os=linux go.arch=amd64) in latest "alpine/curl" image, it also works.

Probably got a 404 on https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant_id}/v2.0 your error came from https://github.com/coreos/go-oidc/blob/35b8e031bcac7fed73b96b09d42e6e233a6e6562/oidc/oidc.go#L256
go-oidc was recently bumped to go 1.24.0, but hasn't been tested on go 1.25.0, https://github.com/coreos/go-oidc/pull/467/commits/f4fd38172bfae6ce134e81e1e3ca614aa4af990f, it seems go 1.25.0 upwards breaks the oidc connection to Azure, I tested the oidc connection with go 1.25.5 also failed.
