Dropbox sync failing on fresh Flathub install #187
Comments
Hey @Jachimo, the issue appears to be that the Dropbox token Celeste is using for your account expired, but like you said there needs to be a way for Celeste to fix that for you. Ideally Celeste would just detect the scenario you encountered and then ask to reconnect automatically, but that doesn't happen like you were seeing. In regards to a way to fix things right now, you could run the following (replacing # First run this.
flatpak run --command=sh com.hunterwittenborn.Celeste
# And then run this in the shell that gets spawned.
rclone config delete 'remote'
rclone config
# And then follow the prompts to make a new config.
# Set 'name' to the previous value you had for 'remote'. I want to have a way to make that all seamless in Celeste's GUI as well, I just haven't quite gotten to it yet. I'm still pretty busy with Celeste's rewrite, but I'd like to get this tackled after that's done. If you need help with any of that you can reach out in Celeste's support room as well. |
Also though: did you get that error immediately after adding the Dropbox account to Celeste, or had you waited a bit? It shouldn't be happening immediately, if it is there might be something else happening that I need to look into. |
@hwittenborn No, the error didn't appear immediately. When I first added the Dropbox account (about a week ago, maybe a bit more) it just seemed to be sitting there and not syncing anything. I left it unattended for a while to see if it would pull anything down. It didn't seem to, so when I got back I restarted the app and at that point saw the error. There might be something else going on that caused it to fail to sync the first time, but I wanted to try again and see if that was just a fluke. |
I got a chance to play with the machine that's having the issue today and unfortunately the steps you suggested didn't seem to help. Getting into the Flatpak shell and deleting and re-configuring it seemed to work fine. It popped me into my browser where I authorized the app with Dropbox, and seemed to have gotten the OAuth token. But when I opened Celeste again and cleared the errors, the "token expired and there's no refresh token" error popped right back up. Possibly related though: when I used
This is with rclone Update -- I think I've figured out at least one aspect of the problem. When I initially set up the sync, I wanted to have the local directory Syncing However, in doing all this I noticed a slightly-odd behavior in Celeste: I can't delete a remote using the GUI; it pops up a confirmation dialog, I click yes, and then the app seems to crash. |
I'm running into a problem after installing Celese using Flatpak on a brand-new Pop_OS 22.04 (basically Ubuntu 22.04) system.
I installed Celeste, ran it, added my Dropbox account, authenticated to the account (browser roundtrip worked fine), but then it seemed to stop doing anything.
Running it in a terminal session shows a lot (once a second or so) of the following error message lines:
Because the app is installed via Flatpak, and I don't have
rclone
installed in my normal PATH, I'm not sure how I can even do what it suggests about re-runningrclone config reconnect
. (I think for that to work I'd somehow have to run it from inside the Flatpak environment? I'm not sure whererclone
is actually installed but presumably somewhere in/var/lib/flatpak/
...)It seems to me there are potentially two issues at work here: one is the issue with Dropbox sync not working and causing the error, and then there's a secondary contributing problem, which is the inability to run the Rclone reconnect command easily, when Flatpak has been used to install Celeste.
Happy to gather more information if helpful.
