Logging error

[marcindabrowski]

I've switched from Windows 7 to Windows 10, and on new computer I can't log into my account. When switching I've just copy my Thunderbird profile.

On new computer I have: Thunderbird: 38.6.0 Lightning: 4.0.6 Exchange EWS Provider: 3.6.0-beta1

No when I try to connect to my calendar I recive: Error during checking of server and mailbox: HTTP Client error 401: Unauthorized URL:https://mydomain.pl/EWS/Exchange.asmx (Code: -19)

In my password i have two chars '%' - but I think that on old computer it dosen't bother.

Ntlm-v1 Preferences is Enable.

Password could be creating issues. Please clear saved password and try to login..

I've try it before, and it didn't work.

[marcindabrowski]

It is definitely password issue - when it contains % character you can't log in. When I changed password, everything work ok again.

[roman-parkhunovskyi]

Confirm that it's related to % symbol present in password. After replacing it the bug disappeared. But needs fixing anyway.

[mephinet]

Ah, true, the issue is caused by the % in the password!

I'm having this problem and i only have alphanum in my password. I can try changing though, I don't see any saved passwords in my seahorse keychain for this and don't seem to be able to set it up. I did get an upgrade alert for Lightning to version 5.4, it broke after that.

I get this error trying to connect to EWS calendar and receive an unauthorised 401 error. I can login to Outlook Web Access and access the Calendar on my Android device without the 401. This would indicate there is parsing my credentials with the plugin to the server. I didn't have any password field prompt when attempting to establish a connection, so I'm guessing it's just trying to by my username without any password.

FWIW, I'm running Thunderbird 52.1.1 with Exchange EWS at version 3.9.0. I tried to downgrade to Lightning version 4.7.4, but my Thunderbird version is too new to do so.

Update: Even with a fresh Thundbird profile, I'm experiencing the same issue.

I also am getting this error after updating to thunderbird 52.1.1 which forced lightning to upgrade to version 5.4. EWS version 3.9.0

[tikkav]

Same problem here. After upgrading lightning to version 5.4. (EWS 3.9.0)

Same problem for me: "HTTP Client error 403: Forbidden URL:http://autodiscover.xxxxxxxxxxx.be/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml" or "HTTP Client error 401: Unauthorized URL:https://xxx.yyy.zzz/EWS/exchange.asmx" with Thunderbird 52.1.1, Lightning 5.4 and Exchange EWS Provider 3.9.0 and no '%' in my password.

[matgerard]

Same problem, no % in password. Worked fine before Thunderbird 52.1.1 upgrade (Lightning 5.4 EWS Provider 3.9.0).

[golanv]

I can also confirm the issue. No % in password, but I get this error with Thunderbird 52.1.1 and EWS Provider 3.9.0 and 3.8.0 as well. It works in older versions of Thunderbird.

So I had previously documented the ntlmv1 config setting because I'm using HTTPS (so it's ok, right?). Unfortunately, I can also report that on Thunderbird 52.1.0 and EWS Provider 3.9.0, I also get the 401 message now. I don't really know much about how an NTLM header should look in HTTP but I setup a somewhat insecure reverse proxy to test capturing this in both a browser and in Thunderbird. In the instance of my working browser session, I see the Authentication header passing my username and password in cleartext. However, in the instance of Thunderbird, I don't see the password in the Authentication header at all. I assume it is supposed to be there? I'm going to continue to research but I'm not certain this is the same issue that I saw previously that forced me to start using the ntlmv1 config setting.

Greetings!

I've been experiencing the same problems on Thunderbird: 52.1.1 Ubuntu 16.04 Exchange Provider 3.9.0

I turned on logging, and see the following (username/exchange provider url changed) while attempting to create a new network calendar:

I never receive a password prompt. Password IS stored in thunderbird password manager. (NTLM enable/disable makes no difference.)

Everything was working just fine until I updated thunderbird earlier this week.

I have the same Issue here.

Thunderbird: 52.1.1 Ubuntu 16.04 Exchange Provider 3.9.0 Lightning 5.4.1

Is the first time that i use Exchange Provider, so the password not saved. The prompt not appears when i click in "Check server and mailbox", and after show me Unauthorized.

[ghost]

Same here, Calendar stopped working after last thunderbird update to 52.1.1 (64-Bit) with forced Lightning update to 5.4 , but gave no errors or what was wrong at all. So I setup a fresh profile and installed Lightning 5.4 and EWS Provider 3.9.0. Upon creating a new EWS Calender I get the 401 error, but there are no passwords stored, since I set up a totally new profile.

[SusanneX]

I have the same problem as deividfg and mondjunge and was looking at this page since some weeks now hoping there would be a fix.

Ubuntu 16.04 Thunderbird 52.4.0 Exchange Provider 3.9.0 Lightning 5.4

Hello SusanneX,

try using the latest beta release under https://github.com/ExchangeCalendar/exchangecalendar/releases, this should fix your problems, it did for me (ubuntu 16.04, Thunderbird 52.3.0, Lightning 5.4, Exchange EWS Provider 4.0.0-beta4)

Cheers mondjunge

[SusanneX]

Thanks a lot mondjunge. You made my day, everything works again.
