Cannot add Gdrive online account; fails with 'userActionFinished error:2' after user name

There’s a nice writeup here in the howto section on how to make gdrive working with KDE again.

Problem is: I tried this when I was logged in into my Kubuntu system and got it to work without issues. I want to use this under EndeavourOS as well, especially since I mostly use EndeavourOS now (it’s basically Arch).

(Outdated information follows)


But here, I was unable to.

I added kio-gdrive and it’s dependencies, but when I try to add my Google account in Dolphin under Network, I only get an error (laptop was restarted prior to this after the kio-gdrive installation):

This happens after I tried to add the e-mail address, right before the password screen appears. The ‘userActionFinished error: 2’ remains after further restarts.

Any ideas? In case this is important, the signon-ui version is 0.17+20231016-3. For the Kubuntu system, it’s 0.17+git20231016.eef943f-3. They seem to be the same.


Update after around one month:

EDIT: This is where you are at a disadvantage with a rolling distribution. You are always shooting at a moving target. I tried again a moment ago, and now it works!

The only signon component which got an update recently is signon-kwallet-extension, but I am not complaining.

Lesson: Sometimes, you need a little patience.

I have the same problem with any account I try to create

You can’t use Gdrive. Read this:

Did you read my first post? I absolutely can use GDrive via Dolphin/kio-gdrive. Read the HOWTO I linked how I did it, and how to avoid the issues in the two posts you linked. It’s an individual solution which also got mentioned here yesterday: KDE Online Accounts - Not Signing In - #89 by johnandmegh

Messy because the access token is frequently forgotten and I need to re-do the setup, but it works.

My issue is was that it works only on Kubuntu, not on EndeavourOS (which I use more often).

Just during writing this post, I accessed the account via Dolphin to verify that it still works.

EDIT: And to spite you and me, I retried on EndeavourOS, and the signon process and subsequent access of GDrive went flawlessly. I add my edit to the original post so I can mark it as the “solution”.

If someone have ‘userActionFinished error:2’ on their fedora, considering do something with (like uninstall, back to kernel that doesn’t have gpu driver, or maybe do some alternative by tweaking the config) nouveau driver or gpu drive, because the Qt6WebEngine not support that. I use kernel time machine or back to the kernel that i was done intalling fedora, and it work.
