Spring Social Google return after login wrong

Question

I have implemented Spring social for Facebook, Twitter and Google. For the first 2 it works but Google redirect the user to /signin after accepting on the google page where you allow my application access to your google+ account. /signin is a 404. If I make a page for /signin the page is shown but the user is not logged in.

I am to familiar with the underlying mechanics of connectController and GoogleConnectionFactory but i believe it should redirect the request back to where it came from and with access tokens. This is /auth/google i believe. I tried a redirect from /signin to /auth/google but that did not work. As mentioned for Twitter and Facebook there was no problem.

The code: public class SocialConfig implements SocialConfigurer

@Override
public void addConnectionFactories(ConnectionFactoryConfigurer cfConfig, Environment env) {
    cfConfig.addConnectionFactory(new FacebookConnectionFactory(
            env.getProperty("facebook.app.id"),
            env.getProperty("facebook.app.secret")
    ));
    cfConfig.addConnectionFactory(new TwitterConnectionFactory(
            env.getProperty("twitter.consumer.key"),
            env.getProperty("twitter.consumer.secret")
    ));
    cfConfig.addConnectionFactory(new GoogleConnectionFactory(
            env.getProperty("google.app.id"),
            env.getProperty("google.app.secret")));
}

@Bean
public ConnectController connectController(ConnectionFactoryLocator connectionFactoryLocator, ConnectionRepository connectionRepository) {
    return new ConnectController(connectionFactoryLocator, connectionRepository);
}

SecurityConfig.java

.apply(getSpringSocialConfigurer()); //to http.

private SpringSocialConfigurer getSpringSocialConfigurer() {
    SpringSocialConfigurer config = new SpringSocialConfigurer();
    config.alwaysUsePostLoginUrl(true);
    config.postLoginUrl("/");

    return config;
}

the jsp.

  //facebook
                <a href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/auth/facebook" class="hidden-xs">
                    <img src="<c:url value="/static/img/fb-login.png"/>" height="32"/>      
                </a>

//twitter
                <a href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/auth/twitter" class="hidden-xs">
                    <img src="<c:url value="/static/img/twitter-login.png"/>" height="20" width="24"/>      
                </a>
 //google
            <form name="go_signin" id="go_signin" action="<c:url value="/auth/google"/>" method="POST" class="float-left">          
                <div onclick="this.parentNode.submit();">
                    <img src="<c:url value="/static/img/google-login.png"/>" height="32"/>      
                </div>
                <input type="hidden" name="${_csrf.parameterName}" value="${_csrf.token}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="scope" value="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login" /> 
            </form>

In the google app console i set Redirect URIs to : {my_url}/auth/google and Javascript Origins just to my url. I tried almost every combination. anything but /auth/google will result in a redirect uri mismatch error before you get to the google login page

Any idea`s are welcome, thank you in advance.

You have to change the settings in the Google console for what redirect_uri is allowed but then you have to configure in your code somewhere what the redirect_uri actually should be. The documentation probably says somewhere. — abraham
I added PostLoginURL and also try to set it in the form : <input type="hidden" name="redirect_uri" value="${pageContext.request.contextPath}" /> But it does not work. Google Docs says the following but in my case does not seem to do that : After the user authorizes your app they will be redirected to your /oauth/ url. There you will receive a "code" parameter. You can exchange that code for an access token: This is a SpringSocialController that should handle the authentication. — Jelmer Komen
Have you ever solved this problem? I have the same issue. After logging for a first time the google redirects me to /signin instead of /singup. — Jagger

This project has a good working sample on using spring-social-google : https://github.com/GabiAxel/spring-social-google-example
