Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/229

Software versions

  • Browser: Chrome 71
  • Nextcloud: 15.04
  • Nextcloud Bookmarks app: latest
  • Floccus: latest
  • Floccus sync method: nextcloud folders

Steps to reproduce

  1. download and install chrome extension
  2. click add account.
  3. put in credentials
  4. hit "sync button"
  5. get error

Expected outcome

I expected it to work. I've already got it working on two different machines with firefox but it's not working on chrome for some reason.

Actual outcome

error

...

Debug log

There does not appear to be a debug log in the chrome extension.

Also this does not seem to be just my problem.

EDIT:

Ooooh whoops. Looks like I wasn't using the official app. This app doesn't work, and I don't know who made it. Maybe it's a scam? Guess I should have known better to double check this info before installing it: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/floccus-nextcloud-sync/behlkinclcpoiijckdfjmibdpnfocefg/related?hl=en

Ah yes. It's not a scam. Initial versions of floccus were not available in the webstore so someone put them up there, but since then the person has neglected the undertaking.
