[Solved] checkgmail Error: incorrect username or password

Checkgmail is failing again on username and password. Former edits to file that corrected the problem are not working for me.

Output of command line follows:

Possible unintended interpolation of @2 in string at (eval 32) line 1.
Warning: Gtk2::Sexy not found ...

CheckGmail uses Gtk2::Sexy for clickable URLs in mail messages
Please download and install from CPAN (http://search.cpan.org) if you want to use this feature ...

Unable to find gmail_ik ... full message text won't work sad

Unable to find gmail_ik ... full message text won't work sad

Unable to find gmail_ik ... full message text won't work sad

Perl exited with active threads:
    1 running and unjoined
    0 finished and unjoined
    0 running and detached

I saw this show up in the Arch bug tracker, then it was gone. (something related to testing/perl-libwww). There is a patch on the svn website, but I am unsure how to integrate it as I am nothing of a programmer.

Re: [Solved] checkgmail Error: incorrect username or password

I had the same problem, without perl-libwww 6, so it's unrelated. I found a fix on the ubuntu forums:

I fixed it with a patch made available by Jan Jergus - thanks Jan.

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d … tid=738663

What is needed to do is to download the patch written by Jan https://sourceforge.net/tracker/downloa … id=3406322

You then need to make sure you have the latest checkgmail, not the one in the repos, with

$ checkgmail -update

Finally, apply the patch with

$ sudo patch /usr/bin/checkgmail /PATH/TO/checkgmail.patch

Cheers

Those links were truncated so they'll 404. I searched for the quote and found the actual links:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d … tid=738663

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/downloa … id=3406322

I applied the update and the patch and am able to login again. Thanks.

Thanks nicky7, not quite woken up when I wrote that this morning. I've updated the links in my post as well.

Re: [Solved] checkgmail Error: incorrect username or password

Thank you all for your help.
Updating and applying the patch worked.
BTW, I ran checkgmail --update as root and it worked. Previously the update had failed as normal user.
Marking as solved.

Re: [Solved] checkgmail Error: incorrect username or password

I have a problem with checkgmail for four or five days ago, This is error message:

Error:501 Protocol scheme 'https' is not supported (LWP::Protocol::https not installed).

I've updated and I've applied the patch, but don't work.

Best regards.

yoburtu,

somehow perl-https was moved to another package, and its not yet on the dependencies of checkgmail.

Install

perl-lwp-protocol-https

and dependencies, that solved the problem here.
