Bug Description

Recently I changed my Google password. I use Gnome-Online-Accounts to manage access to my Google accounts for chat, calendar, email, contacts and documents.

Upon boot today, I received a prompt that something needs attention with my GOA Online Accounts, and was presented with an optional launch button to open the GOA console. When I clicked it, the GOA console did not open.

Since I am aware of bug 950352, I know to launch the GOA console either through the Accounts... of Empathy or using "gnome-control-center online-accounts" from the command line.

The account where I had reset my password has an expected message "Expired Credentials. Please log in again." with a Login button.

Clicking the button launches the login process, where I can sign-in using my credentials, and after successfully logging in I am asked by Google to re-authorize the GNOME application with "Allow" or "Deny" prompts. Clicking Allow, the window closes, except the status in the GOA console does not change, and my Evolution client still reports an authentication error on load.
