Hey there! We've found the following might help you get unblocked faster:

• 🧵 Can't login with cli
• 🧵 CLI throwing "Unauthorized" with RAILWAY_TOKEN
• 🧵 Github Actions - CLI login issues
• 🧵 Railway ssh not working

If you find the answer from one of these, please let us know by solving the thread!

tried it from mac term, intellij term, warp term, why can't I login?

is anyone there? big blocker for me, why can't I log in??

hello?

What is your CLI version? You can check that by typing railway --version

You can also try deleting ~/.railway and doing the flow again.

21.2.1

deleted it, tried to log in again, same issue, but it did recreate the ~/.railway with a token so something is messed

I'm experiencing the same issue: https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1437848849036218531

Okay, they fixed the issue for me. You should try it for yourself again.

Team just pushed a fix for this, can you guys try again?

didn't work:(

Are you on a mac or windows based machine?

mac

Run rm -rf ~/.railway/config.json then railway login and you should be good to go!

Didn't work:(

is this gonna be fixed any time soon? It's been days now:( so many things I'd like to be able to do with this, but I can't even use claude mcp or anything scripting related cause I can't get the damn cli to login... what gives?

I would love to fix it but your last message of: 21.2.1 doesn't seem to be valid version, you should be on 4.x

hmm, don't know where I got that but this is it: railway 4.11.0

same thing, unauthorized

any progress? I really need this!

✅ The ticket Connection issue with SSH authentication has been marked as completed.

Why is this ticket completed? I still cannot login!?

This is going on seven days now:(

hello?

this is getting a bit rediculous now.....

Can you run ls ~/.railway and tell me what shows up?

config.json version.json

I was able to diagnose this with Webmaster FRNT, we discovered the following:

```

railway login

> Open the browser?

Yes Unauthorized.

Please login with railway login

Note: Using RAILWAY_TOKEN environment variable

cat ~/.railway/config.json { "projects": {}, "user": { "token": "myToken" }, "linkedFunctions": null }%

```

The issue here is that the user had the RAILWAY_TOKEN set, and that the error message was not specific enough to prompt the user to unset RAILWAY_TOKEN

Solved!
