Rclone config fails oAuth - google response unverified app

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

trying to run "rclone config" on raspberry pi 4 using latest update
create new google credential - provided client id and secret.
waiting for google response in browser; browser response says
unverified credential. configuration never ends (just waiting).

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

rclone v1.53.3-DEV

  • os/arch: linux/arm64
  • go version: go1.15.9

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

Google Drive

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

   rclone config 

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

rclone config

A log from the command with the -vv flag

Ran "rclone -vv config" - you don't tell me where to find the required log data, there are too many. be more specific. (a path the the linux dir would be a start. 

copy of screen output (edited to remove security info :

In searching for a solution I follow a simple two step process
(was trying to use rsync) but was lead to rclone.
Did rclone install and then rclone config.

After it failed did more research and found out about creating
certification via google console.

However, this process has seemed to change since that documentation
was written. Did the best to follow it. Created first credential, but
noticed it was marked (internal). fumbled my way through the steps
and got an "external" type of credential. published it but still no change

Any help is appreciated.

Reading the console interaction, I noticed that an AUTH server is mentioned. No mention was the requirement for an LDAP server.
It does not come preinstalled in the basic raspberry pi config.

Looking into this

Update the version as that old one won’t work.

I just ran "rclone selfupdate" but my current version says that is an invalid option.

I am running the latest raspberry pi OS on a fresh install from the raspberry pi website.

I did "sudo apt install rclone" and this is the version that was installed.

runnnig apt update; upgrade does not change anything.

searched and found documentation for installing the latest version from the rclone.org

The instructions refer to an AMD type cpu , but raspberry pi is an ARM (broadcom) device. Consequently When I tried to run "rclone config"
after copying the new version to /usr/bin

I received the following responses


crossettpi@extra1:~ $ rclone selfupdate
bash: /usr/bin/rclone: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
crossettpi@extra1:~ $ sudo rclone selfupdate
/usr/bin/rclone: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
crossettpi@extra1:~ $ rclone config
bash: /usr/bin/rclone: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error


Install directions are here

Most package managers won’t work. You can’t use self update as that version is years old.

you are correct. I updated my previous response after going to rclone.org
and following the linux install process.

As I stated above. I believe the version is for AMD type cpu and raspberry pi is an ARM (broadcom) cpu.

How ever, I did find another website that probably is for older versions.
It specifies: not to include client id and secret but then specifies a manual setup rather than auto setup. This seemed to work. At least I have a drive definition in .config/rclone. directory.


Setup Rclone with Google Drive using SSH - seedit4.me

Further testing is needed to see if it works.

Well I found another install process on the Raspberry pi website.

I installed the ARM version (at least it seems to run). And I did a
rclone selfupdate and it reports the latest version as

rclone v1.59.2

  • os/version: raspbian 11.5 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 5.15.61-v8+ (aarch64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: arm
  • go/version: go1.18.6
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

However I tried to run the config process using the client id and secret and an auto config (by default).

This time a received a message from drop box that states"

Error (400)

It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request. If you would like to report this error to the app's developer, include the information below.

--

the client id is the correct value.

Ok so now I receive an similar "404" error from dropbook saying the same thing. I will go back to the origional rclone from rpi and the manual config to see if it works

Are you using Dropbox or Google Drive?
