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

Well, that was easy - Stopped all, restarted and it's working fine. I didn't know it was that simple.

Thanks!

	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
