Problem with access to onedrive buiseness

Help and Support

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Dear community,
I can't access my one-drive buiseness account. When I come do the login page
https://login.live.com/oauth20_authorize.srf?client_id=0000000044165769&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost.rclone.org%3A53682%2F&response_type=code&scope=wl.signin+wl.offline_access+onedrive.readwrite&state=3755b123459b0a0fd3d7c8b4bb648863
and when I write the email-adress for this account, I get the message:

That Microsoft account doesn't exist. Enter a different account or get a new one.

But it surely exists!
From the webmaster of the site I got the information, that rclone has to communicate with "O365"
Any ideas, what I can do?
My rclone version is 1.36, my OS is ubuntu 18.04 (xubuntu).

Thanks for Your help!
Stefan

Thanks for Your help!
I've downloaded the newest version, and I had a little more luck.
I could authorize my machine.

0: OneDrive (business) (some code left here)
I typed the "0" and I've got:

Is that okay?
y) Yes (default)
n) No
I typed "y" and I've got

2020/04/08 19:54:34 Failed to save config after 10 tries: Failed to create temp file for new config: open /home/stefan/.config/rclone/rclone.conf001297743: permission denied

What can I do now?

Just run:

mkdir -p /home/stefan/.config/rclone

and give it a go again

Sorry, the same error message again!

Are you running as the same user? Seems like you have a permissions issue with your home directory.

Can you show the permissions? Can you create a file yourself?

Thanks, maybee this solved the problem.

I typed sudo chown -R myname /home/myname

and I came to the end of the config process. Maybee it has to do do that I did the installation with


> curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
maybee sudo caused this problem?

Your install is fine. You run sudo so you can install it to your system as that's normal.

Is it working now or not working as your message is not clear.

Hello,
to be honest: I still have problems.
I've made (via the browser) a folder with 2 small files in OneDrive.
Then I typed

rclone lsd remote:

and I got:

2020/04/08 20:40:21 Failed to create file system for "remote:": didn't find section in config file

10

Is the first issue you had solved? Did you authenticate and get it created?

When you run:

rclone config file

Can you share the contents of the file with keys and passwords and such removed?

The error says you named your remote something else.

11

hi,
what is the name of the onedrive remote?
you can do a rclone listremotes

change remote: to the name of the remote listed in that command

12

rclone listremotes
Enter configuration password:
password:
onedrive:

13

try this

rclone lsd onedrive:

14

it seems to work!

rclone lsd onedrive:

      -1 2020-04-08 20:38:30         2 test

I have folder on my onedrive-account called test. There are 2 files.
