Social Google Login redirects to customer login screen after Google authentication

[CaribGuide]

Hi,

I enabled Google social login. I created an app and added ID and secret.
When I click log in with Google I get redirected to the Google login screen, I log in with Google credentials and then get redirected to the customer login screen.
The Google app is approved and verified and the redirect URL is correct. The scope of the Google app is correct: ./auth/userinfo.email, ./auth/userinfo.profile and opened.
There is a piece of code:
try {
$user = Socialite::driver($provider)->user();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
return redirect()->route('shop.customer.session.index');
}

which suggests that the $user assignment failed.

Please advise.
Thank you.
