edX Android Mobile App is not working

[siva...@teachedison.com]

Hi,

I have done the following steps for edx mobile app setup,

1.) Installed edx fullstack on azure Ubuntu VM

2.) Have changed the following values in lms.env.json

"FEATURES" : {
    ...
    "ENABLE_MOBILE_REST_API": true,
    "ENABLE_OAUTH2_PROVIDER": true,
    "ENABLE_COMBINED_LOGIN_REGISTRATION": true
}

3.) Created oauth2 from my edx admin panel

       url : http://my azure vm name/api/mobile/v0.5/?app=android

           redirect url : same as url

           client type : public

4.) Cloned edx-app-android in my windows machine.

5.) Change the following values in my config file

       API_HOST_URL: 'http://10.0.2.2:8000' // Here i placed my azure ip running edX

       OAUTH_CLIENT_ID: ''  // Here i placed my oauth id generated using step 3

​6.) Enabled port 8000 in my azure VM endpoints

But, while running the application in android studio it shows following error

org.edx.mobile.http.Api﹕ Auth response= {"error_description": "A secure connection is required.", "error": "invalid_request"}​

Can some one help me to resolve this issue? Looking forward. Thanks.

It looks like your instance is set up to use SSL for oauth, but your server isn’t set up for SSL. First you should try using ‘https’ instead of ‘http’. If that doesn’t work you need to either configure SSL on your server (recommended) or disable the check by adding the following additional feature flag:




"OAUTH_ENFORCE_SECURE": ""

thanks for your reply, we already disable OAUTH_ENFORCE_SECURE=false

Hrrrm.
I’m not an expert on that codepath, but if you’re still seeing that error, it probably still thinks that SSL is required. Maybe you have the flag misformatted? The documentation says

"OAUTH_ENFORCE_SECURE": “"

not

“OAUTH_ENFORCE_SECURE"= false

as you say in your email. It may be they’re the same in the end, or that you did the first thing and weren’t clear in your email, but it seems like a place to start.

thank you for your reply, I use a self-signed certificate for SSL.is there any issue. after configuring my certificate, i remove the following flag. but now it's showing the error about SSL.
