Description Alin M Elena 2009-11-30 15:19:28 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          g++ (SUSE Linux) 4.4.1 [gcc-4_4-branch revision 150839] 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I try to create a googledata resource in akonadi (contacts). however it tells me that the password is invalid.
both my username and password that I introduce are correct.


I compiled akonadi from the last svn trunk 1056202

I have this same problem.  If I add googledata and google calendar as resources, it works.  However, upon a re-boot it says "invalid password" in the Akonadi configuration.  entering my password again fixes this until another boot.

I experience the same issue as Mr. McKee.
It seems like akonadi is not waiting for network connectivity before it tries to connect to web resources like Google.

I can confirm that this bug still exists in Kubuntu,using KDE 4.4.85

Although I'm not a programmer, I'm thinking that the googledata resource is not properly saving the login and password into Kwallet?  I'm assuming that is uses kwallet to manage the passwords?

I can confirm the reboot bug on Kubuntu 10.4 running KDE SC 4.5
Comment 6 Alexey Shildyakov 2010-08-02 08:03:24 UTC
Could you check your KWallet for saved Akonadi passwords after it entering to the form and after rebooting the system?
Comment 7 Robert McKee 2010-08-02 13:27:43 UTC
Alexey,
After performing the steps below, it seems to be working here.
I didn't see any updates come in for it, but I might have missed that.

Comment #8 refers to "Steps below".  What are they?  Is there a fix/work around for this issue?
Comment 12 David John Mills 2010-08-19 10:42:08 UTC
I upgraded to KDE 4.5 and kdepim 4.4.5 (there doesn't seem to be 4.5 versions for kdepim yet).  This problem still occurs.

It thwarts any attempt to sync between my Android phone and KDE PIM.

Another issue - with both KDE 4.4 and KDE 4.5, I have attempted to define 9 Traditional File based address books.  They seem to disappear of their own accord.  The underlying file remains (so that at least I don't lose addresses and can re-add them when I notice that they have gone).

Why might this be occuring and how can I prevent it?
Comment 13 Will Stephenson 2010-09-22 16:01:59 UTC
Still happening with akonadi-googledata 1.2.0.  The password is never written to the wallet, although the wallet is open and the resource is not blacklisted. 

I am using a username of the form "firstname.lastname@gmail.com" - is this correct?
Comment 14 David John Mills 2010-09-23 01:33:01 UTC
I found a fix on a different forum.

Open KDE's config application, goto network then proxy.  There's a setting you change to something like "connect directly to the internet".  Then all my Google connections started working.

Problem solved.

I found it had nothing to do with the proxy settings so this didn't fix it at all.

The problem seems to be in the Akonadi Recourses Configuration, I tried with Akonadi Console and could not get it to connect (saying invalid password and crashing every time I did try to fetch data).
Comment 16 Alin M Elena 2011-01-06 17:27:43 UTC
it works now I will close.
