opencpu server, how to implement OAuth2 interface?

I have installed an OpenCPU server and am trying to let users create their own logins but I keep on getting the following error message:

GET /auth/login
Github secret file not found.

Any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong?

The auth/login endpoint is related to the (experimental) github authentication. For this to work, you need to create a file on the system named /etc/opencpu/secret.conf containing the github 'secret', which is sort of a private key. The secret.conf file must be formatted like this:

{
  "secret": "1515ab906aa1c8250e99410fb204a8d3fd16a738"
}

For more info on github authentication and registering your domain to get a secret, see http://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/.

On a side note: if you are hosting your own server, it might be easier to ssh-in as root and install R packages you would like to use in the standard lcoations. These packages will then become available under /R/pub e.g: http://public.opencpu.org/R/pub.
