Remote Authentication Broken?

I have tried to log into several Hubzilla servers using Remote Authentication and it results in a blank screen. Is remote authentication broken?

I've been digging through my connections on various hubs. I noticed that the problem I described only occurs on hubs operated by @Scott M. Stolz .

It does not depend on the Hubzilla version. Magic-Auth even worked on a channel on an 8.8 hub.

I noticed this for the first time with you, Scott.

When I open Scott's Code Journal (from the links), I see

https://hub.hubzilla.hu/chanview?amp%3Bhash=azJl5YQ3EJGTwRm9-B518HpvQOkDQ_OGKD7x7aY7MUqbRTaa7jJ69pWkAVgGKQw3WO4rn4eZxt-FPMdfwQsjPA

in the address bar for a moment, which is then

redirected to

https://hub.hubzilla.hu/magic?amp%3Brev=1&amp%3Bowa=1&amp%3Bbdest=68747470733a2f2f636f64656a6f75726e616c2e6465762f6368616e6e656c2f73636f74743f663d

and then leads to a blank page.

Even if I access your page directly via the URL (I then end up on your hub) and want to log in via ‘remote authentication’, I end up back on my hub with the blank page.

This is the case with nearly all the pages you operate. It has not happened to me with other hubs (yet).

Magic-Auth works at loves.tech!

I have not tested it for all sites on the server, but enabling Apache PHP-FPM seems to solve the problem on ones I have tested.

If anyone can confirm it works for them, that would be appreciated.

@Scott M. Stolz Yes, it works now.
