Hey, I’m having trouble logging into Railway using my GitHub account.
I already cleared cookies for both railway.com and github.com and tried in Chrome, Edge and Firefox. It was working fine earlier, but now it’s broken and I can’t connect my repositories for deployment.
Here’s exactly what happens:
I go to railway.com and click “Login”
I try redeploy my service
It throws error - "Error authenticating with github" - Problem completing OAuth login
Now can't deploy my service
I saw similar issues earlier happened as well, but how can we fix this?

+1 Same thing. I woke up this morning and suddenly Github was disconnected.
I tried logging back in (failure), I cleared cookies and logged in (failure), I revoked Railway from Github and tried to reconnect (failure).
At this point, my development is broken as I have no access to my Github repos.
