I have cloned the convex-auth-example chat app
There is one problem, while running locally, I can't sign in with a password, at first it shows there is no JWT_PRIVATE_KEY but the data is stored in the database. Then I added
JWT_PRIVATE_KEY in .env at convex. Now if I sign in with a password, it shows this error,
What is the problem?5 Replies

What does the output of
npx convex env list look like? Do you see a JWT_PRIVATE_KEY? Convex environment variables are configured via npx convex env set or in the dashboard, not via .env filesI have actually configured the env at convex. When I run
but I am getting this error
npx convex env list the below is the output
JWT_PRIVATE_KEY=asdfadgdfbut I am getting this error
The key should have a specific format (as an example, here's the beginning of mine
JWT_PRIVATE_KEY=-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- MIIEvg...). This is usually set by running npx @convex-dev/auth or manually generating them with a script (https://labs.convex.dev/auth/setup/manual#configure-private-and-public-key). Have you done this set up?Manual Setup - Convex Auth
Authentication library for your Convex backend
