Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves (Oct 20 2023 at 11:39): Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves (Oct 20 2023 at 11:39):Good afternoon. I set up an OAuth identity provider to work with my Dataverse installation (rctsai). It was working but now whan I try to login with RCTSAI dataverse presents a login form 'https://dados.ipb.pt//oauth2/firstLogin.xhtml', even thugh is nt the first login? What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 20 2023 at 12:06):Huh. Was is working ok for a long time? For weeks or months?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 20 2023 at 12:08):Sometimes, sadly, the Identity Provider (IdP) will change their entityId. This makes Dataverse think it's a new IdP.

I contacted the Identity Provider (IdP) and they assured me that the 'entityId' did not change. How can I check what user's fields are matched with the response of the Identity Provider in order to identify users? It seems that dataverse does not recognize already registered users because user's fields do not match IdP returned data .
Thanks in advance.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:10):Well, the logic seems to be in OAuth2LoginBackingBean.java
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:10):You might need to add more logging statements and recompile Dataverse. :thinking:
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:10):What version of Dataverse are you on?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:12):For 6.0, here is the logic to login an existing user or prompt to create a new user: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.0/src/main/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/authorization/providers/oauth2/OAuth2LoginBackingBean.java#L116-L137
Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves (Oct 30 2023 at 16:16):I am in Dataverse v. 5.12.1 build 1122-cf90431. What do you suggest in order to quickly let users get in in the dataverse system
?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:22):Ok, it's the same. Hasn't changed: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v5.12.1/src/main/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/authorization/providers/oauth2/OAuth2LoginBackingBean.java#L116-L137
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:23):I'm suggesting adding more lines like this:
logger.log(Level.INFO, "debugging line here");

Is it possible to quickly disable signups?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:24):Hmm, I'm not sure. I don't believe so.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 16:25):Is there anything helpful or interesting in server.log?
Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves (Oct 30 2023 at 16:48):In server.log I see the warning message
" [WARNING] [] [edu.harvard.iq.dataverse.util.BundleUtil] [tid: _ThreadID=75 _ThreadName=http-thread-pool::http-listener-1(3)] [tim>
Could not find key "authenticationProvider.name.rctsaai" in bundle file: ]]", can this be the problem? How can I fix it?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 17:30):Interesting. You could edit src/main/java/propertyFiles/Bundle.properties but I doubt it will fix your problem, unfortunately.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 30 2023 at 17:31):@Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves actually, could you please go ahead and open up a support ticket by emailing support@dataverse.org ? And please let me know the ticket number.
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 01 2023 at 09:00):Maybe you sent @Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves into the wrong rabbit hole...
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 01 2023 at 09:01):@Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves which OAuth provider exactly are you using? If this is from your institution, did you mean OIDC?
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 01 2023 at 09:01):Please note that remote users are identified by some persistent identificator
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 01 2023 at 09:02):In case of OIDC, this is the "sub" attribute of the providers auth response.
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 01 2023 at 09:03):I'm not sure right now what it is in case of OAuth2, would need to look into the code for that. And I would need to know which provider you're using exactly

Our OAuth provider is FCCN (not our institution), We are using rctsaai.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 02 2023 at 11:37):@Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves hi, did you email support yet? It would be good to track this. If you did, I can't find the ticket number.
Oliver Bertuch (Nov 02 2023 at 12:39):@Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves did you add a custom OAuth2 provider for that? Or did you use one of the existing implementations?

I used the curl command 'curl -X POST -H 'Content-type: application/json' --upload-file rctsaai.json http://localhost:8080/api/admin/authenticationProviders' with the rctsaai.json that our OAuth provider sent us.

Hello Philip. I just emailed support. The tracking system ID of my message is #351508.
Thank you very much for your support.
