I'm trying to add Codeberg to my self-hosted Woodpecker CI server, but I kept getting the following error in the Woodpecker web interface
Error while authenticating against OAuth provider
and the following in the system log
woodpecker-server[564544]: {"level":"error","error":"oauth2: cannot fetch token: 403 Forbidden\nResponse: Your IP address has been blocked by us. If you believe this is a mistake, please contact us and include your address.","time":"2025年10月02日T01:22:46-06:00","message":"cannot authenticate user"}
It took me a little while to figure out that this error came from Codeberg, and even then it wasn't clear where to request getting unblocked, so this PR updates the block message to clarify who is doing the blocking and how to get it fixed.
