Verification gets stuck after creating an account with OIDC

Open tgr opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start login process in the app
  2. Set server to matrix.wikimedia.onmatrix.chat
  3. Sign in using the "Continue with Wikimedia" button (requires a Wikimedia user account)
  4. Observe a "verify yourself" call to action and click on it

Outcome

A loading screen comes up, and it never stop loading:

This might be an issue with the homeserver (an etke.cc based one) or the OIDC provider, I'm not sure how to verify it that's the case. But the login step does work with OIDC.

Also clicking on the back icon while stuck leads to this very scary sounding message: and doing that and clicking "Skip" is the only way of getting out of the loading screen, and also the only way to access settings in the app (since the call to action obscures the menu) but the message will probably discourage users from doing that.
