Input/output error with personal google creds

[AshipaEk0]

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

rclone mount randomly stops working after a few days

ls -l
ls: reading directory '.': Input/output error
total 0

this consistently happens at intervals with my personal google credentials

when i delete the remote and the mount folder, then add it again, it works with the same systemd service file for a few days, then craps out

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

rclone v1.56.2

• os/version: ubuntu 20.04 (64 bit)
• os/kernel: 5.4.0-89-generic (x86_64)
• os/type: linux
• os/arch: amd64
• go/version: go1.16.8
• go/linking: static
• go/tags: none

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

Google Drive

Is your OAuth consent screen internal or external? How did you make your creds?

[AshipaEk0]

external.

can't create internal consent screen because i have a regular Google account. It seems only google workspace users can make internal ones

I made the creds in the console the regular way i guess.

Today after posting this i have tried publishing the app, and its technically in 'verification'

i have no idea if that will make a difference

[Animosity022]

If you have it external on a personal account, I think you have to verify it for it to work.

Your token not verified times out after a few days as you can see.

I think you can make it testing and make a test user and that may work but I'm not sure. I only use GSuite for my creds and not a personal account.

My personal test account looks like this:

[AshipaEk0]

This was my setup too, and i added a test user which was the same account that i use for the mount

what i've now done is click on publish.

What is really confusing is that i have tried using the default rclone ID and Secrets in the past, and i think i ended up with the same error

[Animosity022]

Yeah, I don't use a non GSuite account other than a test here or there.

[AshipaEk0]

is there some way to automate refreshing the credentials automatically?

[Animosity022]

Other than using a proper GSuite account, I don't believe so as you have to oAuth2 and if you could automate a refresh, it would break the process I'd imagine.

[AshipaEk0]

wish i could tell the exact duration of each refresh so i could set reminders for myself

[Animosity022]

I believe it's every 7 days.

Google Drive cannot refresh token after a few days

A Google Cloud Platform project with an OAuth consent screen configured for an external user type and a publishing status of "Testing" is issued a refresh token expiring in 7 days. AH! That's look like an answer. We should indeed update the drive page. Should I mark your answer as the solution?

[asdffdsa (jojothehumanmonkey)]

hi,

a service account does not use tokens, could that be a solution for the OP?

[Animosity022]

To the best of my knowledge, you can't do delegation which allows impersonation in a non GSuite environment.
