Authorize on remote computer fails - Jottacloud (failed to get oauth token: EOF)

[Philip_Olsson]

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm trying to setup a remote "Jottacloud" with "Tele2" auth on my Truenas server.
So I use my Windows workstation with Win11 to do this since I need a browser.

When I run rclone authorize "jottacloud" I get the error code:
"failed to get oauth token: EOF"

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

Tried Beta and Stable:

rclone v1.67.0-beta.7794.070cff8a6
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.22631.3296 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.22.1
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: cmount

rclone v1.66.0
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.22631.3296 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.22.1
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: cmount

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Jottacloud with Tele2 auth.

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone authorize "jottacloud" -vv

A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv flag

All jottacloud authentication system including all their whitelabel versions is messy.

I think the easiest would be to configure your Tele2 account on your local computer and then copy paste all relevant config file section to the remote machine.

Great tips, I'll try that! Thanks!

[Philip_Olsson]

It worked perfectly! Thanks <3

Might be a coincidence but I have a Jottacloud remote I made for testing (a free one), and yesterday I was getting alerts that the remote was inaccessible. It seems to be fine today, so I suspect Jottacloud had an outage yesterday, could have coincided with your getting an error message.
