Problem with authentication

[HydrelioxGitHub]

Describe the bug
I've a problem with authenticating in docker. I've the message in my browser ( "You are authenticated, you can now return to the program. This will auto-close" ). But in the shell, I have the message : "

root@nas:~#` docker exec -it gphoto run                                                                                                                                                                             
[info]   Opening browser to complete authorization.

[warn]   Browser was not detected. Complete the authorization browsing to: http://localhost:29070

[error]  error while authorization: error while exchanging authorization code and token: Post 
https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

[fatal]  could not get a token: error while exchanging authorization code and token: Post https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

Desktop & Client versions (please complete the following information):

• Docker

Precision : I'm running the container on a headless server. So I've got to authenticate through a browser on another machine. In the browse I get the success page but if I log the container I've got what I mentioned above.

Please run this:

docker exec -it gphoto update-ca-certificates

And once it's finished try again with:

docker exec -it gphoto run 

[HydrelioxGitHub]

I've got an error on the first command :

root@nas:~# docker exec -it gphoto update-ca-certificates OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "exec: \"update-ca-certificates\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown

[rfgamaral]

That's weird...

Please login to your container shell:

docker exec -it gphoto /bin/sh

And call update-ca-certificates directly inside the shell. If that doesn't work, while still in the shell do this:

apk add ca-certificates

And then call update-ca-certificates again and then try again:

docker exec -it gphoto run 

Also, which device are you installing docker-gphotos-uploader?

[HydrelioxGitHub]

There is a warning, but it seems something has been done.

But there is permission error then

But how did you got those errors? Were you able to authenticate?

[HydrelioxGitHub]

I just tried your command lines ( apk add certificate etc... ) then docker exec -it gphoto run and do the same thing than explained above (Opening Browser .... etc ) and got on my browser the same message on authentication.

I've just try to re-run and got this : https://pastebin.com/4K6qTasg

[rfgamaral]

So, you were able to authenticate, correct? I really need you to answer me this with a yes or no, I need to understand what's happening and what fixed your authentication problem.

[HydrelioxGitHub]

I think it's a yes. Through the browser I was able to authenticate.

[rfgamaral]

If the authentication problem is fixed, that's great, I might need to fix something on my Docker image, can you please just let me know which device are you using for this? A Raspberry Pi or something?

As for your uploading issue, that looks like an upstream issue and I recommend you open a new issue in the gphotos-uploader-cli repository, they should be able to help you better. But based on the error, there seems to be some problem with the album you're uploading to. Try to rename the folder name and try to upload again and see if that works.

Hi rfgamaral, I met the same problem. My device is Synology DS918+ with docker. I used you method and it success to run. Thanks! But it finally got some error just like this:
[info] 179169 files pending to be uploaded in folder '/photos'.
[error] error while trying to create this media item, err=Failed: There was an error while trying to create this media item.

Hi rfgamaral, I met the same problem. My device is Synology DS918+ with docker. I used you method and it success to run.

Just clarify something for me... You had the same authentication problem and you fixed with my suggestion above? Yes?

[scadylan]

Yes , it is fixed with you suggestion and it runs well. Thanks!

[rfgamaral]

Yes , it is fixed with you suggestion and it runs well. Thanks!

Thank you, I'll need to provide a fix for that.

As for the other issue, I believe that's an upstream issue (maybe, not sure yet) and that's being tracked here: gphotosuploader/gphotos-uploader-cli#49

[HydrelioxGitHub]

Maybe this issue can be closed as the error 400 problem is not really related to it ?

[rfgamaral]

Well, the original issue is not yet fixed in master, you guys only used a workaround to temporarily solve the problem on your end. I'll close this once I fix the authentication issue in master and release a new version with it :)

I've made one test with some pictures and deleted them on Google Photo. Now these photo are not detected again as uploadable. How do I reset to re-upload them ?

I have no idea. You need to ask that in the gphotos-uploader-cli repository.

Raspberry Pi3, Raspbian GNU/Linux 9.11 (stretch),
just want to confirm that I had the same issue as the topic starter ( error about certificate signed by unknown authority) and "apk add ca-certificates" with "update-ca-certificates" in container shell helped in this case. Thank you.

[rfgamaral]

Thank you for that @suprimex.

I'm going to publish a fixed version in a couple of minutes and close this once it's published.

[rfgamaral]

I just published a fixed version to the preview tag (and bumped the tool to the latest version), could any of you guys please test it out before I publish this to latest?
