Security

Hello,

 

I am trying to get the social network login working with Instant and ClearPass Guest.

 

I already set up Facebook and LinkedIn without any problem, but not Twitter. I don't know why, but everytime I try to click on the button, I am instantly redirected to the captive portal, as if it was only refreshing the page...

 

To be sure that's it's not due to a firewall rule problem, I tested using the login page when being on a network with full access. Facebook and LinkedIn work, but not Twitter...

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have these whitelisted ?

Thank you for your reply.

 

Yes, I whitelisted all of these 3 domains. And to be sure that it is not a fw blocking problem, I launched the login page from this link using a network where I have all access :

 

 

Did you defined the following in the Twitter App?

 

And use the right credentials:

 

 

Yes, that's what I did ! Except the URL of the page where I put the login page instead :

 

https://xxxxx/guest/Aquastar_login.php

 

I really don't see why everything works with the others and not with Twitter...

Interesting...sounds like a FW issue 

I can't see how :(

You need to Tripple check your URL setting in Twitters app setup page. Usually when that happens the post back to CPPM is not correct or as victor mentioned it's a firewall issue.

Thanks for your help.

 

I triple checked my URL login in the Twitter App, it is good. I'm on the network login page with the buttons when I click on it.

 

I don't understand how it can be a FW issue since I can navigate without any problem on twitter, api.twitter.com, etc...

WOW. Finally solved this problem !!

 

I was using an auto-register page for guests and when I was trying to click on the Twitter login page, nothing was happening. It was just like it was refreshing the portal.

 

So, I tried to create a Web Login page instead, and when I tested i got an error :

 

"Desktop applications only support the oauth_callback value 'oob'"

 

Figured out that it was because I left the Callback URL field blank on my Twitter App...

This HAS to be non-empty

I put "https://example.com" only to have something in there and everything worked perfectly.

 

 

 

After several weeks of scratching my head, I'm happy I found what was going on and hope it will help others that are trying to implement Twitter for their guest login.
