RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Grega Bremec 2015-11-26 10:28:33 UTC
Description of problem:

Upon trying to access a Google address book, I get the following error:

"This address book cannot be opened.  This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable."

"Detailed error message: Unable to connect to 'Contacts': The requested resource was not found: https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/AuthForInstalledApps"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-data-server-3.12.11-24.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a Google address book (or create a Google account in Evolution)
2. Try to access the contents

Actual results:
The above error.

Expected results:
The contents of the Google address book.

Additional info:
The above URL displays the error background from Google - apparently, they have migrated to OAuth 2.0 a while ago.

Comment 1 Milan Crha 2015-11-26 10:46:13 UTC
Thanks fro a bug report. That's a known issue since the Google server disabled the ClientLogin. The current "workaround" is to setup the Google account in GNOME Online Accounts (gnome-control-center->Online Accounts), which uses OAuth and thus works as expected. The upcoming upstream stable version 3.20.0 will allow added Google accounts with OAuth authentication directly in the evolution.
