Login silently fails on an unrecognized chain id

When attempting to log in, if the chain is not in a specific set the login fails with no notification of why.

Since you're just signing stuff, do you need to care about the chain at all?

Can you elaborate? Where is the chain not set?

Where is the chain not set?

In MetaMask, I was on the xDAI chain.

In looking at the format of CAIP-10, it includes the chain id, so maybe you do have to limit it to a specific set, but it would still be nice to get an on-screen notification that the chain needs to be changed.

I tried to replicate this issue, and got the following:

  1. no problem in 3id-connect/authprovider creating a did using an xDAI account
  2. in self.id got a warning
 Failed to login: e: Unsupported chain id: 100. Supported chain ids are: 1,3,4,5,42.

but yeah no visual feedback yet

I guess the fix here is to just allow any chain id (as long as provider supported), and/or given some basic visual feedback to user in self.id

Thanks for looking into this!
Sorry I forgot about this configuration for the injected provider in self.id, this chain ID restriction should be removed now.
