Description of problem: Evolution Email is asking for credentials every time is opened. The email client is set up with EWS. How reproducible: Not sure. After the upgrade to Fedora 30 all my keyring passwords are gone and Evolution is asking for credentials every time I open it. This machine is using Enterprise login. Running journactl -f i see: goa-daemon[5594]: secret_password_clear_sync() failed: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.secrets: Timeout was reached goa-daemon[5594]: Unable to clean-up stale keyring entries: Failed to delete credentials from the keyring goa-daemon[5594]: secret_password_clear_sync() failed: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.secrets: Timeout was reached goa-daemon[5594]: Unable to clean-up stale keyring entries: Failed to delete credentials from the keyring goa-daemon[5594]: secret_password_clear_sync() failed: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.secrets: Timeout was reached goa-daemon[5594]: Unable to clean-up stale keyring entries: Failed to delete credentials from the keyring $ rpm -qa |grep keyring gnome-keyring-3.31.91-1.fc30.x86_64 gnome-keyring-pam-3.31.91-1.fc30.x86_64 libgnome-keyring-3.12.0-17.fc30.x86_64 gnome-keyring-sharp-1.0.1-0.28.133722svn.fc30.x86_64
Update: If i replace the running keyring daemon I can see again the login passwords under seahorse and the above errors are gone. $gnome-keyring-daemon -r
I am having a related problem. I regularly use x2go, and I was having the issue if Evolution asking for credentials every time it was opened through x2go. It worked fine locally, but it had that problem through x2go(and vnc). So x2go folks gave me a solution. Have x2go run gnome-keyring-daemon --replace –components=secrets . That worked great, until I tried to use evolution from my local machine again. It then has that same issue with getting prompted for passwords. Even if I log out of X and back in, the local machine's evolution will not work until I actually reboot. Even if, on the local machine, I do: gnome-keyring-daemon --replace –components=secrets I still have the same issue on the local machine until I reboot. -- What to do here? Thanks!
