Invalid User Credentials error no matter which arguments I enter #42

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
I tried at least 20 different combinations of host, domain, webspace, 
username and password but every time I get "Invalid User Credentials".
1.  I run the Jar file and enter in the host domain and webspace.
2.  My site is http://sites.google.com/a/lilybclayton.org/www so I put 
host=sites.google.com domain=lilybclayton.org, webspace=www
For username I tried including just my user id and also adding the domain 
to the end but either way it does not work.  

I am using Google Apps so it looks like domain is required.  

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I am trying to export a copy of my web site.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The latest version 1.0.1 on Windows XP.  I just downloaded Java 1.6 today 
since I got other errors with Java 1.5.

Please provide any additional information below.

Same problem here. I'm using 1.0.1 on Linux with Sun Java 6 runtime.

Finally I was able to make it work -
Host: sites.google.com
Domain: site
Webspace: <<name which you registered with google sites>>. In my case, its 
valushop
Username: google account name, try adding @gmail.com
Password

2 Important things to note -
Export- downloads the files from google.
Secondly, This program does not work through firewall. So if you have a proxy 
setting to access internet, it won't work. It did not work from my office m/c.

Hi I have the exact same problem. I tried all combinations for domain, 
username, webspace and all I get is Invalid credentials. I tried on XP-Java1.6 
and Mac with Java 1.6 with and without proxy, I still have the same problem. I 
have a domain name. 
Please advice..

Hey great, finally got it to work - I would suggest making the import and 
export buttons clearer - took me ages to work it out.

(how about 'download from net' and 'upload to net' ?)

Hi!
I notice the same problem reported in comment #4:
http://code.google.com/p/google-sites-liberation/issues/detail?id=42#c4
Seems like there is no way to make it work under a proxy: I always get "Invalid 
User Credentials".
My version is 1.0.4.
Also, it would be nice to have a way to report any error in more detail (a 
stack trace, for example).

Thanks!

I was able to the tool to work through our corporate proxy for our corporate 
apps domain (https).  To enable proxy support, launch the jar file from the 
command line, with the additional proxy parameters.

Example:

java -Dhttps.proxyHost=your.proxy.com -Dhttps.proxyPort=1080 
google-sites-liberation-1.0.4.jar

If you have 2-step verification turn on for your account it will interrupt the 
export process.

So turn off 2-step verification just to export (then turn it back on) or create 
a new gmail account, add it as an owner of the site, and complete the export 
with that account's details.

I had problems until I realised that 2-step verification was turned on for my 
account.  As in comment #17 the UI complains of Invalid Credentials and there 
is no clue that access is being blocked by Google's 2-step verification 
process.  Here's another way to deal with this without turning 2-step 
verification off or creating a new account.  First of all sign into the google 
account in question, navigate to security, 2-step verification, manage your 
application-specific passwords.  Then generate a new application-specific 
password specifically for google-sites-liberation.  You'll need to keep this 
page open so you can copy this into the password box of the 
google-sites-liberation UI (cut&paste didn't work for me so I had to copy it by 
eye&hand).  

Then to dump data from the site https://sites.google.com/site/mywebspace/ I use:

Host: sites.google.com
Domain: site
Webspace: mywebspace
Import/Export Revisions: unchecked
Username: <myusername>@gmail.com
Password: <myapplicationspecificpassword>

That's it : thanks for a Really Useful piece of code!

If you still have problem, check this link, and enable the less security access 
of your account, you can disable it after you export your sites.

For people with 2-step authentication :

Steps described by patrick worked great :

(Setting another account as owner and using this account didn't work for me.)

This still appears to be an issue with 1.0.4 on Linux.

I have a Google Apps-hosted site and therefore I don't have the "less secure 
access" option. I've followed all the above instructions and I'm certain that 
my settings are correct. 

Is this tool still supported for Google Apps customers?

I've had a daily job running with 1.0.4 on Ubuntu Linux for months now which 
exports my site using the command line.

I have a Google Apps site.

A few days ago I started seeing this error happening every time I attempt an 
export:

Jun 02, 2015 3:00:04 AM com.google.sites.liberation.export.Main doMain
SEVERE: Invalid User Credentials!

        at com.google.sites.liberation.export.Main.doMain(Main.java:79)
        ... 1 more

I had changed nothing - neither my login credentials nor the script.

Clearly Google has changed something on their end that has caused this to break.

Is anyone looking further into this issue?

I am a Google Apps user with 2-step authentication enabled, and I can't get 
this to work anymore. I tried an Application Specific Password, but no luck. 
Also as noted above the "Less Secure Apps" option is not available to Google 
Apps customers.

Same here. I had enabled less-secure-apps when that option first started 
blocking access to google sites liberation. That solved the problem for a 
while, but now the invalid-credentials error occurs even with less-secure-apps 
enabled, so google sites liberation no longer works.

I've been fighting this for like a month now and Google hasn't helped at all.
I have a Google Apps site that cannot be exported anymore.   
Reaching out asking if anybody has found a solution to the 'Invalid 
Credentials' message of death?

I have a Google Apps site. I have a daily cron job to do the export.

I started seeing the error at the start of June. It started working again June 
13 - 23 but then it broke again June 24 and hasn't worked since.

Can anyone help?
