Constantly asks for access token #64

Closed oliversalzburg closed 5 years ago

oliversalzburg commented 5 years ago

Specifications

Expected Behavior

I enter the access token and am never asked for it again without good reason.

Actual Behavior

I am constantly asked for the access token for no apparent reason.

Steps to Reproduce

I don't know. This didn't happen last time I was using VS Code and the extension doesn't tell me what the problem is.

auto_sync is not enabled. token is set and valid. Extension asks for token about every minute. When I enter my token or not, shortly after I see "Syncing: Settings uploaded" in the status bar.

You mean the extension asked for the token again and again while you actually did nothing at the meantime?

@nonoroazoro Yes. At least, I couldn't detect what specifically I might have been doing that would cause the behavior.

I later suspected a relation between the behavior and me having multiple instances of VS Code open. But I do that all the time. So it wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

If there is somewhere to look for more information, I'd gladly do it. I couldn't find any output that would help me troubleshoot this.

@oliversalzburg Theoretically, multiple instances of VSCode will not lead to the problem. Syncing actually does nothing unless you turned on the auto-sync or executed some of its commands.

I wonder if it's possible that you delete the syncing.json file, re-install the extension and try it again? Thanks!
