App Installation fails due to 404

[SchoolGuy]

Bug Report

Description

When executing Fireactions for the first time, the GitHub API responds with a 404 during GitHub App Installation.

Expected Behavior

Fireactions installs itself into the GitHub Organization.

Current Behavior

The app logs a 404 error to the journal.

Possible Solution

Install the app manually via the GitHub UI into the Organization.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Create a GitHub App with the required permissions.
2. Install Fireactions with Ansible
3. See error in the log

Your Environment

• Fireactions version: 0.3.0
• OS: openSUSE Leap 15.6

I think as an alternative to automate this via code, it is acceptable if this step is put into the documentation.

Yes, one of the requirements is to install the GitHub app that You've manually created. I don't see the usefulness in automating this, unless we automate the GitHub App creation as well, but I haven't seen this done anywhere.

I think even in ARC (Actions Runner Controller) the GitHub app creation is manually.

We'll update the documentation

@konradasb Would you like a contribution, or do you want to do this on yourself?
