Angularfire: Server Error. certificate has expired

[Rofer11607]

* Screenshots *

Expected behavior

I am running ng add @angular/fire and it should let me select a project from my firebase projects

Actual behavior

the terminal is saying: Server Error. certificate has expired

[Rofer11607]

I'm having an issue with my ng add @angular/fire command and I think this might have something to do with it. below is a screenshot of me checking my login by running firebase login, it clearly says I'm logged in. then I run a deploy to firebase command and it says "🚨 You're not logged into Firebase. Logging you in..."

I've reinstalled npm, firebase, angular/fire, and angular to try and resolve this issue; no dice. here is my angular versions:

Edit, I changed the time on my system to before this started happening and it fixed the issue, how do I put the correct time on my system and still have angular/fire work?

[Rofer11607]

January 5th 2020 seems to be the last day that I can use the ng add @angular/fire command

Guess we'll have to do it all manually then. Here's a little tutorial about how to make your Angular app into a PWA, then just host that on FIrebase, more lengthy but at least you learn more I guess ?

Isn't Firebase Tools up to versions 7.12.1 maybe updating from version 6.10.0 would resolve this issue?

[Rofer11607]

hmmmmm.... maybe I'm missing something; here is my firebase version, where does it say firebase is version 6.10.0?

maybe @angular fire has a different version of firebase tools its using?

[wSedlacek]

From what I can tell from the package.json, yes.
https://github.com/angular/angularfire/blob/master/package.json#L46

I can confirm I am having the same issue with ng add @angular/fire I haven't found any other work arounds or solutions other then what you had mentioned about rolling back the clock.

From what I could gather from the the source code and behavior the issue seems to be coming from the this block of code for listing the projects, however I could be wrong.
https://github.com/angular/angularfire/blob/master/src/schematics/utils.ts#L5-L11

Given that it is pretty simple and it seems like this is a HTTPS cert expiring the only conclusion I could draw is maybe the older version of firebase-tools in the package.json had a cert that expired on either January 5th or 6th 2020.

I did attempt for force the project to resolve a newer version of firebase-tools using resolutions in package.json with yarn. However that did not yield any results.

I would definitely like if someone took a look at this when they got a chance. It likely will be a quick fix of updating a package or cert somewhere given that just rolling back the clock makes it work correctly.

[Rofer11607]

the roll back the clock solution only works for a month or so, its says your credentials are no longer valid, anyone have anything new?

I'm not super familiar with AngularFire but I'm pretty sure I found the issue. It's here: https://github.com/angular/angularfire/blob/5ccf5db3302be4a77529c33eda9ce39e5503b3c4/src/schematics/utils.ts#L7

firebase.list() is a deprecated command and the backend it talks to has been decommissioned. This should be changed to firebase.projects.list() instead (the response signature may have changed a bit as well).

[jamesdaniels]

@mbleigh thanks! I'll get on that.

[AdrienVictor]

Any update on fixing the issue? I was trying to get a small pwa ready to deploy on firebase but I also get the error: "Server Error. certificate has expired".

Does anyone know a fix or workaround? I'm just starting with angular so I don't know too much about it yet :).

[Rofer11607]

try rolling your clock back to January 4th

[AdrienVictor]

try rolling your clock back to January 4th

Just to be sure, you are talking to my os clock right ? So setting my windows clock back to January 4th?

Or did you mean something else 😁. In that case I'd like to know how to do it.

[Rofer11607]

roll the os clock back to January 4th, use the ng add command, put it back on the right day; this stopped working for me but its possible that it works for you.

So I did manage to install @angular/fire using your method, thanks a lot.
BUT now I have another error when trying to deploy and I have no idea what to do about it.

I have no idea what happens here, do you know what is the issue? I am a bit lost here. I have the file firebaserc in my directory.

Can you help me again?

[Splaktar]

@AdrienVictor that 2nd issue appears to be a separate issue. Can you please open a new issue with reproduction steps?

Edit: that appears to be a known issue (https://github.com/angular/angularfire/issues/2088) that was just fixed in PR https://github.com/angular/angularfire/pull/2279. The fix should be in the next release.

[jamesdaniels]

I've addressed the ng add error in the version 6 branch, I will cherry pick and release a patch tomorrow https://github.com/angular/angularfire/pull/2282/commits/eafa16e74bd8214441bd0fedbccb65f3c3f7903b

thanks for pointing me in the right direction @mbleigh

[TimoZacherl]

I am experiencing the same issue, any updates?

[Rofer11607]

I uninstalled and reinstalled angular fire, the changes seem to be in the git repository but not in downloading when I run sudo npm install @angular/fire --save @jamesdaniels

[jamesdaniels]

Sorry, got sidetracked working on the 6.0 rc; I'll get a patch out for the stable version.

[jamesdaniels]

This has been fixed in 5.3.1

[sylvesterdas]

npm uninstall @angular/fire 
ng add @angular/fire

worked for me
