Authentication Error on Push Origin

Open LewisRye opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

The problem

Followed this tutorial to install Docker Desktop for Ubuntu Signing in with Docker Desktop for Linux and this involved some GPG key stuff, I believe this has messed with the authentication key used by GitHub Desktop, I now cannot push any commits and keep getting an authentication error. I have tried sudo apt remove github-desktop and reinstalling but nothing is working, does anyone know if this is a bug with the app or if I need to sort it on my side? It is worth noting that when I uninstall and reinstall, I am still signed in so I assume it is not uninstalling properly.

I need more details from the application to be able to troubleshoot further. Please check the logs created at ~/.config/GitHub\ Desktop/logs/ from around the time of the issue to see if there's any helpful messages that might explain the underlying behaviour.

Log states: Error: Although you appear to have the correct authorization credentials, the 'xxxxxxxxx' organization has enabled OAuth App access restrictions... There seems to be no way to add the OAuth app to the organisation unblock list, so temporarily I have completely removed the OAuth restriction on my org and the app seems to now be working again...
