Re: [Evolution] Evo fails to connect to Gmail: “Failed to authenticate: The name :1.6 was not provided by any .service files"

[Len Philpot <lphilpot01 gmail com>]

It was configured directly in Evolution. The previous older version I referenced used GNOME online accounts (I didn't remember the exact name offhand) but I've had no issues until now with the newer version.

I'm about to head to work but I'll try restarting the processes (first, then rebooting if necessary) this evening after work.

Thanks for the info.

        Hi,
how did you configure the Google account, please? Was it directly in
Evolution, or in GNOME Online Accounts, or in Ubuntu Online Accounts,
or...

The error basically means that some process (depending on the way you
configured the account, though I guess evolution-source-registry) had
been connected to some other process through D-Bus and the other
process is now gone for some reason, but the connection is not
re-established (which may or may not be possible, it depends).
Restarting the evolution(-data-server) processes (like with:
`evolution --force-shutdown`) may or may not help. Restarting whole
machine would help, if it'll start the other process after restart too.

The question is why the other process disappeared. Was it expected or
unexpected (like when the other process crashed)? I do not have an
answer for this question, maybe your system logs crashes somewhere,
maybe not.
        Bye,
        Milan
