[lakshman1977]

Hi I am using steps mentioned in https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/5min-tutorial
when i run below command
docker-compose -f quickstart.yml exec hydra
hydra clients create
--endpoint http://127.0.0.1:4445/
--id my-client
--secret secret
-g client_credentials

I am getting error as below
Config file not found because "Config File ".hydra" Not Found in "[/]""

kindly help to create client.

Thanks and Regards

This is a cross-post from here: https://community.ory.sh/t/creates-a-new-oauth-2-0-client-ubunthu/1231

You are seeing a 409 error (conflict) which means that the client exists already:

Unable to execute request: [POST /clients][409] createOAuth2ClientConflict &{Code:0 Debug: Hint: Name:0xc000574010}

So basically the client is already created and you can continue with the tutorial.

We should probably improve the error messages here.

Hi ,
I am getting error something like lakshman@laksh:~/hydra$ docker-compose -f quickstart.yml exec hydra hydra clients create --endpoint http://127.0.0.1:4445/ --id my-client --secret secret -g client_credentials
Config file not found because "Config File ".hydra" Not Found in "[/]""
You should not provide secrets using command line flags, the secret might leak to bash history and similar systems
OAuth 2.0 Client ID: my-client
I dont see "OAuth2 client secret: secret" in the output

when i open 127.0.0.0 :4445
"{"error": "Error 404 - The requested route does not exist. Make sure you are using the right path, domain, and port."}"
kindly advise.

Thanks and Regards
Lakshman

Please follow the guide at https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/5min-tutorial step-by-step. You can reset using docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq). For more information please read the docs: https://www.ory.sh/docs/

You can not simply access http://127.0.0.1:4445 in your browser, you will only find REST APIs there.

Hi Aeneasr,
Its very disappointing, still not getting the answer for the question asked. Yes, I went through
"Please follow the guide at https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/5min-tutorial step-by-step. You can reset using docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq). For more information please read the docs: https://www.ory.sh/docs/"
its of no use, because when you use the docker to run its throwing an error
"Config file not found because "Config File ".hydra" Not Found in "[/]""
You should not provide secrets using command line flags, the secret might leak to bash history and similar systems
OAuth 2.0 Client ID: my-client
I dont see "OAuth2 client secret: secret" in the output"

Yes i agree its a cross post , do you see anyone reply to the post ??? no one..
i am just keep trying for past 3 days still no one really trying to help.

I believe you are more interested in closing the ticket rather than solving the problem..
very disappointing.

Thanks and Regards

"Config file not found because "Config File ".hydra" Not Found in "[/]""

You can ignore this line.

I dont see "OAuth2 client secret: secret" in the output"

The documentation is not up to date there, our CLI no longer echoes the OAuth2 Secret when you explicitly provide it with --secret. The command still runs OK.

I'm not sure what else I can help you with here.
