Problems with signing in with Google
Back to General discussions forum
To whom it would ever concern, just asking about whenever there are currently any known issues with the 'signing-in with Google' mechanism, as have been locked out of account chumn008.315, an account that I loved (and poured so much time from when I should have instead been sleeping in) to try to improve my programming understanding with your well-through of platformas trying to sign in using 'Sign in with Google' button redirects to plain HTML side with text"Not Acceptable! An appropriate representation of the requested resource could not be found on this server. This error was generated by Mod_Security."
if anything could be done to help get back this account or just any more imformation on this issue, that would be incredibly helpful, to help other fellow codeabbey Programmers not wake up a morning to their account gone overnight.
Thank you in advance from a desperate, desperate person finally able to be called programmer thanks to your incredible platform, Please be the light in this tunnel of uncertainty,
-chumn008.3165
if anyone could ever flag this message to Admins, that would be most helpful
Happy Programming to all
Hi Friends, and thanks to Mathias for calling me to this thread!
Here truly is an ongoing issue with Google Login - which I'm trying to figure out since Sunday.
To put it simple, hosting provider updated one of standard security modules which gives "false-positive" reaction to the url generated by google to redirect back to the web-site.
Regretfully I found that the newer version of this security module won't allow me to configure exception. I tried to reach out hosting support and am waiting to see if they can help.
Even if this won't work, we'll be able to make some workaround for google accounts. Or if preferable, I can manually change account login type to github or simple username/password pair - just tell.
Should be resolved now. At least this is my own google-based account.
It took few days to figure out how to reach support (initially it looked both chat and email of them are broken) - and half an hour chatting with a bot - but then some smart human agent joined:
Thank you for the url, I have found Rule ID: 340162 Affected: /index/logingg
I have whitelisted successfully, could you please reload and check now
It really looks like working. Please sorry for inconvenience.
