Wallabag Client 2.0 - Does not work, is vanishing and does not store articles

[RaspyVotan]

Wallabag Client 2.0.0 (downloaded March 21) for Firefox seems to have an issue and keeps vanishing. On a completely new Firefox instance version 45.0.1 installation works fine and I am able to get the wallabag icon in the browser so far, so good.

There are two issues:

1. When I hit the button, wallabag web site of my server pops up and I can log in, but I cannot store pages. (From within the wallabag web end, I can store sites - so the problem is not that the server is not running)
2. As soon as I change the privacy settings and ask firefox not to keep any history, the client vanishes - the icon disappears and I have not (yet) found a way to get it back other than running a complete new install.

Hi,

Are you using the last version (v0.0.4) of https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/wallabag-v2/?

Can you please run in a terminal:

http POST http://your_url/oauth/v2/token \
    grant_type=password \
    client_id=your_client_id \
    client_secret=your_secret_id \
    username=your_username \
    password=your_password

And after that, with your fresh access token:

http GET http://your_url/api/entries.json \
    "Authorization:Bearer your_access_token"

You can also go to about:config and add a new entry extensions.@wallabag-v2.sdk.console.logLevel with the value of all then restart Firefox and open the developer console with Ctrl-Shift-J, try again to save an article and give me the logs about wallabag (you can use Ctrl-F to search for wallabag).

For your privacy settings I have no idea… Maybe Firefox is creating a new profile and reset all addons at each restart.

Hi,
that already helped - I had the wrong verson of the client.

Where will I find the "client id" and the "client_secret"? I am not
yet fully in the details, and unfortunately I could not find it in
the documentation.

Are you running the v2 beta of the server? In the menu go to "Developer" and create a new client (it asks for a URL but it doesn't matter, juste put some random URL).

Perfect - is working now. Will keep testing and will revert if I can
find anything.

Have a great day and thank you for working on this
