If you're seeing the message "Error getting site config" when trying to login, please verify that your install_config.json file is setup properly. On a windows machine it can typically be found underC:\Users\Domino\.dominoconfig\install_config.json. On a mac the path is typically /Users/<username>/.dominoconfig/install_config.json 

If the file does not exists, please create it in the proper directory (depending on your machine), and set it up with the proper values. Example below: 

{"host":"https://some.deployment.com","user_id":"123456","username":"dominopetter",
"api_key":"123456","client_blob_mode":"S3","is_cloud_mode":true,
"report_errors_to_server":false,
"cli_installer_location":"https://some.deployment.com/assets/cli/default"}

If you're not sure about your user_id, you can try leaving that field blank or reaching out to your local administrator for help. 

After this file is saved, please try the command: 

domino login https://<deployment-base-url>.com


If you're still having trouble please try switching to API mode as discussed here: https://tickets.dominodatalab.com/hc/en-us/articles/360058496871-Switch-the-Domino-CLI-from-S3-to-using-the-API-troubleshooting-CLI-errors-
