Hi, we're running Greenlight 2.1.0, and it's working well, but we've come across a couple of issues (I'm not sure if they're linked):
  1. I've setup the Google OAuth settings in .env, but just getting a 'Login Failed due to Invalid Credentials' error whenever I try to register or sign in. I'm certain the details are correct for the Application, and there are n errors on the Google end - is there another setting needs switching on to enable registration via OAuth?
  2. Whilst trying to fix that issue, I realized that although I'm setup as an Admin, I don't see all the settings in the Admin console (see image below); no registration options etc., or even any way to alter roles.

We're now using a managed host after trialling BBB on AWS for a couple of years self-hosted, so haven't yet dug around to see if there's an issue with the installation, but any ideas on either of the above anyone?

Many thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

We're now at version 2.5.2 for Greenlight. To get the other features, you'll need to update to the latest version You can find the steps here: http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/greenlight/gl-install.html#updating-greenlight

For the sign in issues, can you try signing in and then sending some contents of the file ~/greenlight/log/production.log so I can see the error that's causing it?

Hi,

Many thanks for your reply, and apologies for this late response.

I've obtained the log following a couple of sign in and sign up attempts last week, and have attached that to this email. The log times appear to be an hour out, suggesting it's using a different timezone - the server's timezone appears to be correct though; is there somewhere that BBB or Greenlight set the timezone independently of the server? Not sure if it could partly be to blame for the auth issues...

I'll see if we can get it upgraded in the meantime.

Many thanks,

Paul

Is your GOOGLE_OAUTH2_HD variable set? Can you try deleting it completely and and seeing if that fixes your issue?
