Hi @paul ,
here I am, sorry for delay but I could not check before.
So… I have really bad news for you. Now also my second Mac is giving the same trouble ! Until I worked with GS 8, everything worked fine at least in my MacBook Pro, now both Macs are giving troubles with token. The third Mac is only working for creating listings, so I don’t know if token is valid or not there. I only know that until I updated my Macbook pro to Monterey and GS to 9, I have the same issue with token. It is just less usual to happen because I do not leave MacBook Pro always on. It just happen when I leave it on in my office, when I switch it off the token returns to be valid, it will then broke in some hours if I leave it running.
Apart this, concerning your questions:
The Mac mini is always on, it never shut down. GS is open and set in preferences to “update every 5 minutes”. I do not invoke listing updating manually.
How can I change the language?
Yes, I see.
I am going to download it right now. The Mac is always on, so it will probably crash later this night.
Let me know for anything else I can do. Thanks to you for your work.
That’s odd. We specifically modified that B18 to crash when it attempts to write an invalid token to the key chain.
Here is one other you could try. Got to Keychain Access, select your “GarageSale eBay Account” entry, hit “Get Info” for the Entry, go to the “Access Control” tab and remove all items from that list, except “Keychain Access” itself.
When you use GarageSale 9 next time, it should ask you to grant Keychain Access once again.
If you see your token go bad once again, please check how many instances of GarageSale are now on the “Access Control” list for your token in Keychain Access.
It looks the same for me, after I deleted my existing account/token from the Keychain and GarageSale and created a new account from scratch.
We changed to access permissions, so when we ship major updates of GarageSale, users don’t have to go through these “Allow Keychain Access” panels. That’s why you cannot remove/delete individual apps anymore. I forgot about this. My apologies for making you go down that rabbit holes.
Still, we cannot figure out why parts of your token disappear from the keychain.
Hi Ilja,
is this something available in the next beta? Do I have to try again instructions above? I am still blocked here. Token of both Macs now get corrupted after some hours. I have to quit the app and reopen to let the token work again (for some hours). I am convinced it has to do with two separated Macs working in the same ebay account with two different databases (NOT synced). Let me know what else I can do please!!!
I am totally stuck with the work. I cannot use auto relist feature because the token expires and no solution seems to be possible. I really need a fix, or I will be forced to downgrade to GS 8, although this might be difficult. This is exactly what worried me before upgrading to 9 version…
That’s something that’s already built-in. You want see an improvement until we release GarageSale 10, and you don’t get the “Keychain permission” panels anymore.
I only have one account, and yes, I already deleted account. I will do it again: both delete account in preferences + GarageSale eBay Account in the keychain.
Here is another special version for you test. We rewrote most of the code that saves your eBay access tokens into your Mac’s Keychain. Please let us know how it runs for you and at what point you see errors starting to appear:
Since we don’t know what the cause of your problems is, we cannot guarantee you that version will immediately show alerts to you. We tested on our Macs, and no issues showed up.
If the version is less usable for you, please go back to Beta 19.
Welcome Ilja, I will do anything to fix this issue. I am totally stuck with my work and this is driving me mad.
Yes, until now no crash. At least, when I remotely access to the Mac, GS is running. I don’t know if it crashed before. There is no crash report panel.
