Re: [Evolution] Google and EWS connector auth pia

[Michael Piko <michael piko com au>]

Thank you Pete. I'll review the link again however I believe I have
looked at it before. 

I'm sure the token is being regenerated - as it should - and evolution
should deal with that without additional user intervention just as
other product do.

Interestingly, some of the time I am asked to provide a password and
others I am asked only to click allow. 

I'll try to find some log info next time it happens.

Continually usually means once a day however it has on occasion

occurred more often than that.

If it is authenticating correctly and you can retrieve mail, then there

is fundamentally nothing wrong with the process.

Once an OAuth2 token is given to an application, then the lifetime of

that token is determined by the server.  Is it possible that some

server configuration is restricting the lifetime?

There's also a wiki page on EWS OAuth2 

https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution/EWS/OAuth2

this has some debugging info at the bottom.  It may be worth using that

to see if there are any obvious places where OAuth2 is having problems

such as when it tries to store the token.
