1100805 - Provider for Google Calendar: Cannot enter username + password

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: Provider: GData, defect)

Description

[thomas.entner]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2125.111 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

- Update to 1.02
- Removed old calendars
- Want to create a new calendar
- Select "Google Calendar"
- Entered gmail-address


Actual results:

An empty windows pops up


Expected results:

I guess it should ask for username and/or password

Note: I had this issue also with 1.01, so I sticked with 0.32 up to now - now it looks like Google has turned off the old API and I can use neither 0.32 nor 1.02

Are you using a custom Theme? If yes: could you retest with Thunderbird default theme?

Do you get any error messages in Tools > Error Console?

I had used a theme in the past but disabled it now. The problem still persits. The only active add-ons are Lightning and the Provider for Google Calendar.

There are indeed some messages on the Error Console (see screenshot), they were already there before I tried to add the calendar. (BTW: In the moment I am accessing the calendar via WebDAV, without the provider)

Please also make sure you switch back to the default theme in the appearance section of the addons manager. Users have reported this fixed when doing this.

Thanks, you were right! I have disabled the "Options" of my theme, but not theme itself...

After entering username and password, I reactivated my theme (Classic TB2 1.3.0) and it appears to work without issues.

Thanks for the great work!

I just got this issue with the default theme running icedove 45.2.0 and calendar-google-provider (1:45.2.0-4)

Wondering if this is connected to my high resolution settings of my screen.
