[SyncEvolution] Google contacts authentication problem with U-O-A (Ubuntu-Vivid)
by Khurshid Alam
Hi,
I a using *syncevolution-1.5-0ubuntu4* (& eds-3.12.11-0ubuntu1) on Ubuntu
Vivid. After adding google account in Ubuntu-Online-Accounts I could NOT
make it sync with google contacts.
Initially Evolution contacts also did not work as “contacts” feature for
evolution app was NOT enabled in Google developer/account console (As
commented by Alberto Mardegan on the bug report:
*https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/account-plugins/+bug/1399953
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/account-plugins/+bug/1399953>*).
But after Alberto enabled it, it started to work with Evolution. However it
still fails with syncevolution ( recreating the account in UOA did not
help).
For example, running,
'''
SYNCEVOLUTION_DEBUG=1 syncevolution --print-databases –daemon=no\
loglevel=2 backend=carddav username=uoa:3,google-contacts\
syncURL=https://www.googleapis.com/.well-known/carddav
'''
gives: *“PROPFIND: Neon error code 1: 403 Forbidden, must not retry”. *Here
is the complete log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10563001/
AFAIK, syncevolution & evolution both using same access-token/refresh-token
stored in UOA. So why is it working for evolution & failing for
syncevolution?
Note: It works with calendar without any problem.
Thanks.
