How to resolve login error while creating a new node app?

Technical Q&A
1

I am at a standstill on my current project due to the following error when trying to connect, start, or create a new node app through the CLI

‘scope’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
‘redirect_uri’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
‘state’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
‘response_type’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
‘code_challenge’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
‘code_challenge_method’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
X System call failed: start

After this error, if I run the command shopify whoami, it says I’m logged in, but as soon as I try to shopify node connect or shopify node create, it tells me to login. I’m in a cycle right now.

I’m now 3 days behind on my work.

This may seem like a nonproductive answer.

Make a hello world app (all parts even installing a basic custom app) from scratch and try porting your code over.

You may have everything right, but a mis-configuration might have slipped in in your pipeline.

I could say it’s a certificate issue, or an oauth error, but if you’ve spent 3 days on it I’m guessing you’ve tried a number of things.

Good luck.
