[SOLVED] Getting "general_phone_disabled" even though _APP_SMS_PROVIDER is provided in .env
I'm integrating with Twilio and have added the sms provider string and sms from number in the .env file, restarted the instance multiple number of times and yet I'm getting the error from my Flutter client app
AppwriteException: general_phone_disabled, Phone provider not configured (503)
Code to trigger the call:
final models.Token token = await account.createPhoneSession(
userId: ID.unique(),
phone: '+91xxxxxxxx'
);
Even the appwrite-worker-messaging container is running fine (screenshot attached)
Is there anything else I need to do in my client project instead?
Hey there 👋 After changes to .env, Appwrite needs to be restarted.
Stop with docker compose down and start with docker compose up -d. That should apply your changes to .env, and allow phone sessions. Please let me know if this works for you
yess! it worked! I didn't realize that restarting the container from the Docker GUI doesnt really do much. Thanks for the quick solution though!
Fyi, restarting the containers won't apply environment variables changes. They need to be recreated. docker compose down will remove the containers, so that docker compose up -d can recreate them.
