GitHub oAuth just gives me "Forbidden" when logging to Gerrit
Hello, I have two Gerrit accounts: "osvoboda" (primary e-mail: osvoboda@redhat.com), which I use exclusively, and "lenoch" (primary e-mail: ondrej@svobodasoft.cz), which I must have created because of my issues below, perhaps hoping to somehow merge the accounts later or just "make it work" cluelessly. I would like to use my GitHub account to log in to the "osvoboda" profile. When trying to add a new identity and clicking on "GitHub OAuth2 (gerrit-oauth-provider plugin)" I am able to log in to my GitHub account and approve "oVirt Gerrit", which then shows in "Authorized applications" in my GitHub settings. Trying to log in, however, gives me a simple "Forbidden" message. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this, please? I thought this had to do something with the e-mail address GitHub supplies to Gerrit through OAuth, but I can never be sure. Do you know what "public information" GitHub actually shares with Gerrit? If anything, I wouldn't mind to have my "lenoch" Gerrit account removed, if there was any clash with the "osvoboda" account, in terms of linked e-mail addresses and GitHub authorizations. I hope someone has a clue :-) Thanks, Ondra
My motivation: Fedora OpenID logged me out five times only yesterday, and too many times before. GitHub seems handy to me, given that a simple e-mail/login+password is not available in Gerrit at all. On Sun, Apr 30, 2017 at 12:57 AM, Ondrej Svoboda <osvoboda@redhat.com> wrote:

It is perfectly reasonable to use the GitHub account to login to oVirt's Gerrit, and many developers (myself included) do either that or use Google. It should work out of the box, but sometimes we see browser quirks. Can you try cleaning your browser cache and cookies? If it still doesn't work, please send an email to infra-support to open a Jira ticket. -- Barak Korren RHV DevOps team , RHCE, RHCi Red Hat EMEA redhat.com | TRIED. TESTED.
