I’m integrating Auth0 login with my Vue SPA utilizing Capacitor for an iOS native app. The app runs on an iOS emulator (iPhone 16 Professional, iOS 16.0+), however login persistently fails at auth0.handleRedirectCallback with a community error:
Error: “The community connection was misplaced”
Notably, after accessing the Auth0 login area as soon as, the connection to this particular area (login.acme.com or staging-login.acme.dev) stops working fully till the emulator is totally reset. Different web sites proceed working usually.
Steps to Reproduce
- Launch the Capacitor Vue app within the iOS emulator.
- Provoke Auth0 login (opens Auth0 URL in browser plugin)
- Full login efficiently, Auth0 redirects again to the app utilizing customized URL scheme.
- The app handles redirect through handleRedirectCallback.
- Observe instant “Community connection was misplaced” error at this step.
Atmosphere Setup
- Vue SPA frontend, utilizing Auth0 SDK: @auth0/auth0-spa-js@^2.1.3
- Capacitor cli model: 7.2.1
- iOS Emulator: iPhone 16 Professional, iOS 16+
- Xcode model: 16.3

Redirect Callback Dealing with
const createNewSession = async (redirectUrl?: string): Promise => {
console.log(`[Auth0] Creating new session by calling handleRedirectCallback`);
if (!auth0Client.worth) {
throw new Error('No Auth0 Shopper');
}
const desiredUrl = redirectUrl ?? window.location.href;
attempt {
console.log(`[Auth0] dealing with redirect callback utilizing redirectUrl: ${desiredUrl}`);
const end result = await auth0Client.worth.handleRedirectCallback(desiredUrl); // <-- Fails right here
console.log('[Auth0] handleRedirectCallback end result', end result);
const sessionAuthenticated = await auth0Client.worth.checkIfAuthenticated();
if (sessionAuthenticated) {
return handleAuthenticatedSession(desiredUrl);
}
} catch (err) {
console.error('[Auth0] Error dealing with redirect callback. Uncooked error:', err);
// Further error dealing with...
}
};
Capacitor Config (capacitor.config.ts)
import kind { CapacitorConfig } from '@capacitor/cli';
const config: CapacitorConfig = {
appId: 'com.acme.app',
appName: 'Acme',
webDir: 'dist',
server: {
hostname: 'localhost',
allowNavigation: ['staging-login.acme.dev'],
},
ios: {
contentInset: 'all the time',
limitsNavigationsToAppBoundDomains: false,
},
plugins: {
CapacitorHttp: { enabled: true },
},
};
export default config;
Redirect URL Technology (Customized Scheme)
const getRedirectUri = (path: string): string => {
if (Capacitor.isNativePlatform()) {
const appId = 'com.acme.app'
const area = import.meta.env.VITE_DOMAIN
return `${appId}://${area}/capacitor/${appId}/${path}`
} else {
// Use window.location.origin for internet builds/dev server
return `${window.location.origin}/${path}`
}
}
###Capacitor URL Listener
App.addListener('appUrlOpen', async (occasion: URLOpenListenerEvent) => {
console.log('[Capacitor] App opened with uncooked URL:', occasion.url)
const end result = await handleRedirectCallback(occasion.url)
console.log('[Capacitor] handleRedirectCallback end result', end result)
await Browser.shut()
})
Instance Redirect URL from logs (anonymized placeholders):
⚡️ [log] - [Capacitor] App opened with uncooked URL: com.acme.app://login.acme.com/capacitor/com.acme.app/login/callback?code=A_CODE&state=A_STATE_STR
Debugging Data
Already Tried Options
- Restarting emulator/machine solves briefly however the difficulty returns after one profitable connection.
- Checked SSL certificates on Auth0 domains
Particular Questions
- Has anybody confronted related persistent community errors particularly with Capacitor and Auth0?
- May this be one thing to do with App permissions?
- Any options for additional debugging or data gathering.
