Client won't connect to One or allow authentication

[jodrre]

Doesn't connect, and the website doesn't allow you to add a new computer that way.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but activation site never appeared.

Karl,

NetworkManager it is a dependency, so you need to have it running for ubuntuone-client to work.

[Natalia Bidart (nataliabidart)]

Hi!

can you please the content of the ~/.config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf file?

You should have something like this:

nessita@dali:~$ cat ~/.config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf
[bandwidth_throttling]
on = False
read_limit = 0
write_limit = 0

If your config has

on = True

Please quit the client through the task bar, change the throttling setting, and start it again. It should work :-)

Let us know if this helps!

[Karl Rixon (karl-rixon)]

Hi Naty - yesterdays release of 1.1+r27 in the PPA fixed the issue for me with WICD. My syncdaemon.conf does have on = True though, but everything is working for me.

karl@karl-laptop:~$ cat .config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf
[bandwidth_throttling]
on = True
read_limit = 0
write_limit = 0

I'm sorry to hear Ubuntu One isn't working properly for you. Fortunately, I think there is a workaround for this problem as I believe it's related to bug 455544 which occurs when the bandwidth preferences are set too low (or to the defaults). If you delete ~/.config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf and restart the Ubuntu One client, you should be able to connect. Thank you, Joshua
