How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Try to subscribe to Google calendar.
2.  Password prompt keeps re-appearing despite XML link, username and password being correct.

Same issue in f21

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2014-12-02 17:30:47 UTC
Upstream has not issued a source release gor gdata 1.0.2

Comment 3 Orion Poplawski 2014-12-02 17:55:04 UTC
Can someone try making this change:

-    return cal.auth.getCredentials(getFormattedString("gdata", "loginDialogTitle"),
+    return cal.auth.getCredentials("Google Calendar",

to line 114 of /usr/lib64/mozilla/extensions/{3550f703-e582-4d05-9a08-453d09bdfdc6}/{a62ef8ec-5fdc-40c2-873c-223b8a6925cc}/js/calGoogleUtils.js

to see if it fixes the issue?

Comment 4 Ingo van Lil 2014-12-02 18:29:18 UTC
Tried the suggested patch, it did not help. The login dialog keeps reappearing until I hit cancel.

Comment 5 Orion Poplawski 2014-12-03 02:03:34 UTC
Yeah, apparently the fixes haven't been pushed anywhere.  I'm afraid without the source there's not much I can do.

Comment 6 Roderick Johnstone 2015-01-14 22:02:10 UTC
Orion

Thanks for maintaining this package.

Does the Download button on this page about provider 1.0.3 give what is needed for to enable the continued support for google calendar in thunderbird??

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-calendar/versions/?page=1#version-1.0.3

That button resolves to the following url for me, which gives an xpi file.

https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/downloads/file/288004/provider_for_google_calendar-1.0.3-tb+sm.xpi?src=version-history

Maybe there is something else needed as well that I'm not aware of?

I need the source code.

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 13:19:07 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-30 01:12:39 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
