<p><font size="2">Hi there - <br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2">I recently had a hard drive failure, and needed to
re-install Linux and restore all my files.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Restoration of Digikam worked well, it accesses my
existing database and I could carry on as before. Great.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Until it came time to upload some photos to Google
Drive. I was taken through the procedure of re-authentication
with Google.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">That's not working.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">I'm using Digikam v7.5.0 on Linux Mint. I use
Firefox as Web browser.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">I select Tools->Export to Google Drive</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Firefox launches automatically and I get to choose
my required Google account.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Then I get the "Digikam wants to access your
Google Account" screen and I click "Allow"</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Then Firefox is redirected to a URL like this :
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://127.0.0.1:8000/?state=07ad2189a2294363bd63e87ed0531003&code=4/0AeaYSHBK6qozU6sicyg2TfbJ9Z1jVD3R6Lg">http://127.0.0.1:8000/?state=07ad2189a2294363bd63e87ed0531003&code=4/0AeaYSHBK6qozU6sicyg2TfbJ9Z1jVD3R6Lg</a>
etc etc etc<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2">and that's as far as we get. It hangs there.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Has google changed the way it authenticates?</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Regards</font></p>
