Unable to sign in to Google from pyportify when using Chrome
Hi,
I'm on Windows trying to sign in to Google. The following error is displayed in the pyportify.exe console window when I click the Submit button.
Error handling request Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\aiohttp\server.py", line 266, in start File "site-packages\aiohttp\web.py", line 90, in handle_request File "pyportify\app.py", line 36, in google_login File "site-packages\aiohttp\web_reqrep.py", line 334, in json File "json__init__.py", line 319, in loads File "json\decoder.py", line 339, in decode File "json\decoder.py", line 357, in raw_decode json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)
This only seems to happen in Chrome. If I do the same thing in IE, it works fine.
fwiw i just ran into the same issue when trying to log in w/ 2-step verification turned on on my goog account. turning it off seemed to solve the issue for me.
Hmm, I had no problems with 2FA, but I used an app password for pyportify.
Don't turn off your 2-step for this. Use app passwords like russjr08 said https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
Why people keep recommending that Google app password? The link leads to nowhere. https://cl.ly/2n0Z2m1d3M1k/Screen%20Shot%202017-10-14%20at%2010.41.45%20AM.png
Do you have 2FA enabled for sure? It takes me to the proper page.
I'd upload a screenshot but I'm on mobile and am a bit too lazy to find somewhere to upload it at the moment :P try searching "Google App Password" on Google.
I had to enable 2FA first, and then generate the app password for this to work. It did NOT work without 2FA. There's no option to create an App pass while 2FA is turned off.
