flipper: Desktop failed to provide certificates

See original GitHub issue

Only CPU, logs and crashreporter seem to work. Desktop app and console says:

flipper: Desktop failed to provide certificates. Error from flipper desktop: Disallowed app name in CSR: com.my.application_alpha. Only alphanumeric characters and ‘.’ allowed.

screenshot 2019-02-07 at 16 00 15 This small icon changes periodically to a loading indicator.

Is the problem really in application name? Or something wrong with configuration?

In CustomApplication onCreate()

      final FlipperClient client = AndroidFlipperClient.getInstance(this);
         client.addPlugin(new InspectorFlipperPlugin(this, DescriptorMapping.withDefaults()));

         final DescriptorMapping descriptorMapping = DescriptorMapping.withDefaults();
         client.addPlugin(new InspectorFlipperPlugin(getApplicationContext(), descriptorMapping));

         client.addPlugin(
                 new SharedPreferencesFlipperPlugin(getApplicationContext()));

         client.start();

This should now be fixed for you if you run flipper desktop from source: https://github.com/facebook/flipper#running-from-source

The fix will be in the website download in the next release, which we do roughly once a week.
