Add support for Google Apps

[yo-que-se]

Hello. I'm using gmvault v1.8.1 beta on Windows XP SP2 machine. I have problems using the two legged oauth with my corporte google apps accounts. I send you the details:

gmvault sync [email protected] --2-legged-oauth -d G:\gmvault-db\db\[email protected]

Use gmvault-db located in G:\gmvault-db\db\[email protected].

Activate Gmvault db cleaning. Authentication performed with Gmail XOAuth token.

Get XOAuth credential from ./.gmvault/[email protected].

Successfully read oauth credentials.

Connect to Gmail server.

Error: Unsupported AUTHENTICATE mechanism. ub8mb14320060wib.

=== Exception traceback === Traceback (most recent call last): File "gmv\gmv_cmd.pyc", line 759, in run File "gmv\gmv_cmd.pyc", line 667, in _sync File "gmv\gmvault.pyc", line 258, in init File "gmv\imap_utils.pyc", line 285, in connect File "gmv\mod_imap.pyc", line 244, in xoauth_login File "imaplib.pyc", line 351, in authenticate error: Unsupported AUTHENTICATE mechanism. ub8mb14320060wib

=== End of Exception traceback ===

I have also tried the new version v1.9, but in the new version doesn't exist the --2-legged-oauth parameter.

Thank's for your help!

2-legged-oauth doesn't exist anymore (as Oauth1 is gone) to allow syncing for an entire googleapps domain. However there is a way to solve the issue with a private key. I need to implement and test it. I hope to have it done and ready within one to two weeks.

Glad that this is not just me ;-)

Is there any workaround for this?

[danward79]

A work around would be useful, did you find one?

[gaubert]

There is no quick work around as I need to implement the access to the business google apps. I am working on it and will try to release something fairly quickly.

One workaround is to use the --passwd option, which works with a Google Apps domain on v1.9. Of course this requires that you have the password for the account, which might not be the case in a corporate deployment.

[danward79]

Would that work, on a normal google account?

How is the fix coming along?

[rbrewer]

@danward79 Not sure if you are asking me or @gaubert, but the --passwd flag will let gmvault work with any account that you have the password for: consumer Gmail or Google Apps for Work. I just used it for a Gmail->GAfW account transition, and it worked fine.

@gaubert have you been able to get anywhere with the private key authentication method? I need to migrate a few hundred mailboxes from one google apps domain to another and if I could use this that would be perfect.

@danward79 @rbrewer @yaroshevych This is the last thing to tackle in gmv1.9.1 before release. I will try to work on it in the following weeks.

Upgrading to the latest version (1.9) solved this problem for me.

Is there some documentation on how to use the google apps support for domain wide use? The only thing I see so far is you have to authorize it as each individual user. Was the private key method implemented?

[shireeshj]

Has there been any progress on this? I too am looking for a solution where all accounts of an entire Google Apps domain can be backed up.

I am not a Python programmer, but is there any way I can help in taking this to closure?

@shireeshj @brownrc I suggest opening a new issue, because this one (getting Google Apps to work after the removal of 2-legged-oauth) is solved. What you're describing seems to be a different (backing up an entire domain).

[shireeshj]

you are right. It works for a single google apps account without a hitch.

I'll log another issue for the domain wide feature. Thanks
