KBFS not usable after account reset #2472

Open fd opened 8 years ago

fd commented 8 years ago

I reset my account. Now I can't access KBFS:

/keybase/private/fd was last written by an unknown device claiming to belong to user fd. 
The device has possibly been revoked by the user. 
Use `keybase log send` to file an issue with the Keybase admins. [tags:FID=sARBmN7C8MdknRHpz_lrlg]

@fd Do you have a copy of your paper key?

fd commented 8 years ago

No, unfortunately 1password no longer stores password field histories... (just discovered that)

strib commented 8 years ago

@fd: can you please run keybase log send like the error recommended, and let us know the resulting ID? It could be that you're running an old version of KBFS -- newer versions can recover from some instances of that error.

And @cjb is asking about the your paper key, not your account passphrase. It's the thing that the Keybase signup process asked you to put into your wallet. In your case, for your old pre-reset account, the paper key was a string of words starting with "old race". If you have that written down somewhere it may be possible to recover your data, in case you're already running the newest KBFS version.

@strib No I lost my old paper key. Which means that I cannot recover my original KBFS (which is ok). I was just wondering if there is a way to reset my KBFS so that I can start using it again.

Hi @fd, yes we can manually reset your KBFS public and private folders. (We are working on an automatic way right now, but it's not ready yet.)

But we require a public, signed request to do so. Please run the following command on one of your devices, and substitute the current date and time as indicated:

keybase sign -m "<DATE_AND_TIME>: Please completely reset folders /keybase/private/fd and /keybase/public/fd because I reset my Keybase account."

and post the output here. Thanks!

I would also still appreciate it if you could do a keybase log send, as that's the easiest way for us to figure out the internal IDs of the folders we need to reset it. But if you'd rather not, we can figure it out other in another way.

@strib Did you get around reseting my account already? I'm still unable to use KBFS.

strib commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the reminder @fd, we got distracted by a company retreat this week. Will get this done today.

strib commented 8 years ago

@fd -- those folders should be reset now. After you restart your local kbfs process, you should be good to go. Let us know!
