A few observations after a quick investigation: 1) This is probably not a regression, I doubt that this ever worked 2) Logging in via facebook works 3) The URL we open to start the authentication is https://soundcloud.com/connect?client_id=eadbbc8380aa72be1412e2abe5f8e4ca&redirect_uri=https://wiki.ubuntu.com/&response_type=token&scope=non-expiring 4) If you open this link in webbrowser-app and click on "Sign in with Google", nothing happens 5) If you open the link in Firefox on the desktop, the Google authentication page is opened inside a popup window
My understanding is that the Google authentication completes successfully, but since Google assumes that the authentication happened in a popup window, after the authentication is completed Google tells the browser to close the popup window in order to return control to soundcloud; however, since we didn't open Google inside a popup window, this operation closes the main webview. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-system-settings- online-accounts in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1428591 Title: Dash crashes when trying to authenticate soundcloud scope with google, empty auth page Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in Unity SoundCloud Scope: New Status in ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 1. Go to Soundcloud scope 2. Hit Log-in to SoundCloud button 3. Choose 'Sign in with Google' on the SoundCloud auth page 4. Fill in google account credentials, confirm soundcloud permissions Result: a blank page with 'Cancel' button, no way to navigate back, hitting it crashes the dash (I couldn't get a usable backtrace). NB, this works fine when authenticating using a genuine Soundcloud account. It seems like authenticating via Google is causing the problem.
