Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

I'm unable to connect to the server using the OpenID option.

I configured it two weeks ago using PocketID, and it worked correctly immediately after configuration. I havn't used it since.

logs from the server

Logging in via openid
Error setting up OpenID client: RPError: outgoing request timed out after 3500ms
    at /app/node_modules/openid-client/lib/helpers/request.js:140:13
    at async Issuer.discover (/app/node_modules/openid-client/lib/issuer.js:144:22)

    at async file:///app/src/app-account.js:75:36
info: POST 400 /account/login

screenshot of the browser

the error sais: "an error occured: openid-setup-failed"

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Setup the OpenID option
  2. wait some days / weeks ? ^^
  3. try to login

Where are you hosting Actual?

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

For anyone else who runs into this and can't consult Discord for the solution:

After investigation it occurs just after the container reboot
Ok, when configuring it with the environnement variables it works good, even after the restart
