Exit status code 18: Token has been expired or revoked #282

Full steps to reproduce the issue: I have an account setup for read-only backup that runs daily. It worked successfully many times. I run my backups with the following:

gyb --email *****@gmail.com --local-folder C:\Users\****\GYB-GMail-Backup-****@gmail.com --fast-incremental

Expected outcome (what are you trying to do?): A successful backup

Actual outcome (what errors or bad behavior do you see instead?): Exit status code 18

ERROR: ('invalid_grant: Token has been expired or revoked.', '{\n  "error": "invalid_grant",\n  "error_description": "Token has been expired or revoked."\n}')

The request to refresh tokens is failing even though it has worked until a few days ago. I have not invalidated the GYB authorization in my account.

I have a similar problem.

In my case i get the following error:

ERROR: ('invalid_grant: Bad Request', '{\n "error": "invalid_grant",\n "error_description": "Bad Request"\n}')

It seems my weekly backups stopped working two weeks ago. I discovered the GAM project access in my account was deleted, so i tried to recreate the project, but even after doing it, it doesn't work anymore.

I suspect something has happened either with the GAM project or with Google Cloud Platform.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

A simple manual fix for me was to delete cfg files for mailbox and run backup again. This causes OAuth token to be regenerated. The cfg files were at /home/USER/bin/gyb/email@email.com.cfg

Google, in their infinite wisdom, has limited authorization for "testing" projects to seven days. After seven days, the token expires and must be reauthorized.

I followed the directions in the Wiki to create the App etc. I hit this 7 day issue, but am now confused.

Do I publish the App? It says it would be open to the world (but there is authentication)
Is there an automated way to re-up the expired token automatically in a script so I can re-up automatically before the 7 day expiration

I understand this is a Google question but it is related to GYB.
