authentication failures with `maxsyncaccounts = 3` #303

pschorf · 2016-02-09T23:23:40Z

I have a gmail account configured to authenticate via oauth. When I sync a large number of emails, it works fine for a time but eventually gets an invalid login (i'm assuming the token is timing out.)

Copy message 72650 (17684 of 74595) Remote:[Gmail]/All Mail -> Local
Copy message from Remote:[Gmail]/All Mail:
Establishing connection to imap.gmail.com:993
XOAUTH2 authentication failed: [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Invalid credentials (Failure)

Coud you share your configuration file, version, etc, please?

pschorf · 2016-02-09T23:35:20Z

Sorry :)
Version: 6.6.1 (from homebrew)
Config:

[general]
accounts = Gmail
maxsyncaccounts = 3

[Account Gmail]
localrepository = Local
remoterepository = Remote

[Repository Local]
type = Maildir
localfolders = ~/Maildir

[Repository Remote]
type = Gmail
remoteuser = EMAIL
oauth2_client_id = CLIENT_ID
oauth2_client_secret = CLIENT_SECRET

Thanks, I'll give it a shot

pschorf · 2016-02-10T19:31:11Z

Worked for me, thanks for the help.

nicolas33 · 2016-02-10T23:04:06Z

I'm re-opening since the bug is real and valid. Thanks for your feedback that the workaround is working for you. ,-)

nicolas33 · 2016-07-23T01:11:28Z

Do you have other accounts to set maxsyncaccounts = 3?
Also, I'm curious to know if you can reproduce this error with v7.0.0 if you're willing to test.

nicolas33 · 2016-07-28T02:11:58Z

I'm not sure we should introduce a timer, here. Anyway, I'm closing until somebody hit this issue again and help us.

Well - I can't connect at the moment (from today midday) to google anymore.

@rkrug Please, try current next branch. If it doesn't work, open a new issue.

rkrug · 2016-07-30T19:51:40Z

I am installing using homebrew and I installed HEAD. I assume, this is not the "next" branch. But I get there the following error:

Should I open a new issue with this?

And again, please open a new issue.

rkrug · 2016-08-02T11:33:16Z

I decided to run offlineimap on Linux where it is working fine.
