Network Login Failure error reporting is QUITE unhelpful

[derek-adair]

Currently if my social account integration is not set up properly, I'm left having to dig into the code to debug. It'd be a fantastic improvement for debugging if we could make this generic fail more helpful.

• {{ auth_error }} returned in debug mode
• Exact errors reported via the error console/logs (even w/o debug=True)

I'm sure there are other improvements that can be made in this regard.

I'd be glad to dive in and get this done if no one else had the bandwidth.

Probably a duplicate of #1120

Specifically using twitter. Which seems to NOT be related to #1120? unsure tho.

I had the same issue with Twitter. Currently working on a fix that's going to put out a log.

This is very frustrating and it is a bit surprising that it has been an issue for so long (the first issue I hit on my search was from 2014). I am working on a dockerized application so it's not very easy to debug things or make changes. Why not simply provide at least some detail in the logs at least so that you don't risk exposing something you shouldn't to users. It really shouldn't be that hard to do, right?

Dupe of #1120

[derek-adair]

my bad dude. Thanks for your work.

Would you be open to someone help you triage issues?

[pennersr]

Sure, there is nothing preventing anyone from hopping onto an issue and doing the research.

[derek-adair]

Sure, I'll try to comment where I can. I meant in a more official capacity -- e.g. closing issues for you or escalating valid ones -- which would require us being on the same page with your ambitions and approach to open source.
