While developing the last example of a node.js's introductory book (an express.js application using authentication strategy by Google OpenID), after replacing the passport-google
package (which got obsolete on April 20th, 2015) with passport-google-oauth2
package (authentication strategy by Google OAuth 2.0) and having followed the indications at its documentation's page and an example here; I got the below error after selecting my Google+ account, which was thrown by the oath2.js
module, concretely calling this._oauth2.get("https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me",...)
within userProfile(accessToken, done)
method. The related source code and module dependencies are below.
What could be the root of the problem?
The concrete error is:
InternalOAuthError: failed to fetch user profile
