c:geo OKAPI authorization fails
asked 2014-11-19 03:11:25 +0200
I cannot get c:geo (an android geocaching app) to consider itself authorized on http://opencaching.pl through OKAPI , and wondering if there is any known solution.
The app works fine in all aspects except the authorization step through 'OKAPI' ( http://opencaching.pl/okapi/introduction.html ) necessary to post to the opencaching website from the app.
In the app, upon clicking 'Authorize c:geo', and 'Start again', it opens the browser and loads the website in Sailfish' default browser. However, nothing happens upon clicking on 'I agree' button on the website. As if the app was expecting some data returned from browser, but getting none. Subsequent attempts simply load empty page. Clearly the website thinks the app authenticated just fine, ar the c:geo is listed as authenticated in my profile.
For comparison, on an Android phone clicking 'I agree' on the website takes me back to the app which receives some sort of authentication data and stores it in data/data/.
This is just wild guessing - Does it have anything to do with site looking for a specific user agentof browser? I have read that webcat browser allows you to change the user agent. https://openrepos.net/content/llelectronics/webcat
