[Bug 777953] Re: Google Contacts don't work in Evolution: "Cannot authenticate user: Invalid query"

 

This is not a Duplicate of the other bug which stops the import of data
from google-contacts when a user defined field is empty....this is not
the case here as described above....

The case here is that the login fails with the error message:

Detailed error message: Cannot authenticate user: Invalid query

We know that the login password is OK because if you enter an incorrect
password it simply does not even try to get data from  the google-
contacts but when the password is correct the above message appears and
no contacts at all are imported!

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 755043

  Hello,
  I am trying to add my GMail address book with all its contacts to Evolution. All I get is this Error-Message:

  This address book cannot be opened.  This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable.
