I am trying to connect my github account to deploy a project to sites, but Connect to Gtihub button is disabled.

I have configured all Env variables needed for it. I am using AWS (EC2 Intance - Installed from AWS Marketplace).

`Error 500: "Server Error" (general_server_error)

Log errors show: "Route not found" and "User (role: guests) missing scopes (["vcs.read"])"`

TL;DR
Developers experiencing GitHub connection issues on their self-hosted Appwrite platform. The 'Connect to GitHub' button is disabled despite configuring all necessary environment variables. Errors include 'Error 500: Server Error', 'Route not found', and 'User missing scopes'. The solution involves granting the missing scope 'vcs.read' to the role 'guests' in Appwrite settings.
