I recently upgraded to 2.1.1 and am now trying to enable Google API single sign on. I followed the directions and can get to the 'Login with Google' button, but when I click it, I am redirected to Google and then shown this error:

Error: invalid_client

no application name

Request Details

cookie_policy_enforce=false

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email

response_type=code

access_type=online

redirect_uri=http://forum.galleryserverpro.com/auth.aspx?auth=google

display=page

client_id=XXXXXXXX

I don't know what is causing this but one thing I wonder is whether I have the right API enabled in Google. Their APIs page list dozens of APIs you can enable. Which one is required for SSO? I've tried Contacts API and Google+ API.

Which option do you choose

Login with a user account that is connected with Google. Or if no account is found a new account will be automatically created in the forums.

Connect an existing forums account with your Facebook account You need to login thru the forums first. The Google email address must match the forum user email address to connect the user.

The first option. I'm trying to test the scenario where a first-time user comes to my forum and uses their Google account to log in.

Ahh, OK. I tried using a Google account whose email wasn't used by any forum accounts and was able to authenticate, so it appears you are right.

Thanks for you help. Great product!
