Description

I get an "Unknown RPC Error" when I try to start a chat with someone I just followed.

my log id: 50672e123f55fdd15813531c

Following error is reported by the OS X application:

Error: Unknown RPC Error at t (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:18:6316) at new t (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:18:7136) at s (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:18:6712) at i (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:18:6640) at file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:14:20529 at file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:76:27386 at e.t.Deferrals.e._call (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:42:19061) at file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:42:19212 at c (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:42:18839) at e.t.Deferrals.e._fulfill (file:///Applications/Keybase.app/Contents/Resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js:42:19171)

Research direction

Start with the OS X application and the stack trace in desktop/dist/index.bundle.js, then use log id 50672e123f55fdd15813531c while reproducing a chat start after following someone. Trace the reported unknown RPC error to its source and verify that this workflow no longer produces the unknown error or provides an actionable result.
