#
paradigmatic I'm trying to register my domain at webmention.io. After my indielogin auth success page, I am redirected to an "Internal Server Error" error page. Where and how should I report the issue ?
#
[Murray] @paradigmatic: I'm getting the same error. I'm also seeing an expired SSL cert on redirect, which may be relevant. I know a few people were mentioning on social sites a few days ago that the service was having some issues, so it might just be a continuation of that.
#
[Murray] in terms of where to report the issue, GitHub is a good option, though aaronpk will likely check these channels at some point in the next day or so 🙂
#
paradigmatic thanks !

#
capjamesg aaronpk It looks like https://indieauth.net/ has an expired cert too.
#
capjamesg And https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/
#
capjamesg Sorry to add to the list of things but I'm trying to authenticate to webmention.io via my IndieAuth endpoint. IndieLogin is returning " "<!doctype_html>\n<html_lang": "en>\n<title>400 Bad Request</title>\n<h1>Bad Request</h1>\n<p>The CSRF token is missing.</p>\n""
#
capjamesg The URL I am going to is https://indielogin.com/redirect/indieauth?code=CODE&state=STATE
#
capjamesg I know the spec says there is an `iss` param. I don't have that, but I couldn't discover one.

#
capjamesg Wait the CSRF thing is on my end. My bad.
#
capjamesg aaronpk webmention.io is returning a 500 error on https://webmention.io/auth/callback when I try to authenticate.

#
aaronpk Probably all related to the expired carts
#
aaronpk I'm guessing this is the same problem that the certs did auto renew but the web server didn't reload properly
#
aaronpk oh shoot, looks like i got part way through a migration in june 😬
#
aaronpk well i guess people do actually use these sites because i've gotten several emails and github issues about this 😂
#
capjamesg 😂
#
[tantek] Always a good sign aaronpk
#
capjamesg aaronpk I just tried to sign into webmention.io and it worked this time!

#
capjamesg This is my first time going through an old codebase (~3y old) and bringing it back. There was a lot to fix and improve. These are several accessibility changes I need to make and bugs to fix, but the core authentication process works as expected.

capjamesg Yes!
#
doesnm seems i can't login via alto
#
doesnm https://s.h4ks.com/CFu.png
#
doesnm or i don't understand this flow
#
capjamesg doesnm Can you add https:// to the start of your domain name in that field?
#
capjamesg I don't think the autocomplete is working yet.
#
capjamesg There are a few bugs to iron out 🙃
#
doesnm oh, it uses github same as indielogin
#
capjamesg Yep!
#
capjamesg The email method is in progress. Maybe will launch tomorrow!
#
capjamesg If there is another auth method you would like to see, let me know.
#
doesnm can alto grab domain from referer or smth?
#
capjamesg What would be the use case?
#
doesnm how indielogin do this
#
doesnm <c​apjamesg> What would be the use case? <- not needing to entering domain twise
#
doesnm first on rp page, second on alto
#
capjamesg Ah, I need to look at how to make that work.
#
capjamesg That would be ideal!

[snarfed] I use that bit of JS everywhere users type in a web site or URL
#
aaronpk how do we petition for that to be built into the browser 😅
#
capjamesg Yes! I'd love that.
#
capjamesg I have used it across several websites now.

[tantek] aaronpk, https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues

[tantek] related issue you may wish to cite: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11083
#
earthmover_i_have_a_gun html is on github?
#
[tantek] The HTML standard is maintained and published by WHATWG which yes uses GitHub

[tantek] aaronpk, this issue re enhancing input type=email to support more use-cases / i18n may have some arguments you can re-use: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/4562

#
[tantek] doesnm, there used to be a way to join one IRC server, and then somehow jump from that server into other servers it knew about (but might be "blocked" by your local network or client)
#
doesnm sounds useless
#
[tantek] maybe tunneling was what it was doing, but you were still "on" both servers
#
[tantek] it was quite useful for accessing IRC from kiosks that were semi-locked down
#
[tantek] pretty sure back in the day I was able to do this from DNA Lounge which let you join maybe effnet or another IRC server but not freenode, then joined freenode and chatted on the #microformats channel
