Do you have a firewall or some AV blocking something?

rclone authorize drive

should be it - what are you putting after it?

3

So what exactly is happening? It is not clear at least for me.

you try to authorize "drive" - was it successful?

have you copied token to rclone you are trying to authorize?

where "Error 400: invalid_request" is coming from?

Describe step by step what you are doing and at which stage you have problem.

rclone authorize "stringofletters"

I'm trying to remote setup a nonDE hardware, it gives me the command to use on other pc

P.S.: remote hardware also has 1.62.2, can't get the version thing right now.

5

I run setup on the nonDE machine
Say "n" to advanced cfg and then try the other machine way to set up the drive. I send the command on other pc, open browser. After that it shows Error 400: invalid_request about the loopback thing. I can't even get the confirm perms thing

  1. on one machine you run rclone config - there is no web browser there - so when it asks do you have browser you answer NO

  2. now on computer with browser you should run rclone authorize drive - it will open browser where you login to you Google account

  3. now you should go back to terminal window and copy generated token.

  4. You paste this token to rclone config in first computer

might be also something with your default web browser..

you can try different browser - simply connect there to http://127.0.0.1:53682/auth?state=p4ywrh-XY2JEYhWoUBc7_A
