Re: [R] RGoogleDocs stopped working
At this point, I'm giving up on this issue. The stage of our project requiring daily use of Google Docs ended, thankfully, about a week before this problem arose. I was able to just export the spreadsheet for further analysis, rather than relying on the Google Spreadsheet. If this problem had arisen a week earlier, it would have been a catastrophe, however. Now, though, I don't really have time to keep trying to track this down. I'm disappointed that we couldn't find a solution. It was very useful when it worked. (Tal, yes, I just tried it on another machine with a fresh R and packages install. No joy.) -Harlan On Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 2:38 PM, Harlan Harris har...@harris.name wrote: No joy for me. :( I'd had version 0.4-1 installed previously, and re-pulling that URL and reinstalling, plus setting RCurlOptions as specified, do not help for me.

Hi Harlan
I just tried to connect to Google Docs and I had ostensibly the same

However, the password was actually different from what I had specified.
After resetting it with GoogleDocs, the getGoogleDocsConnection() worked
fine. So I don't doubt that the login and password are correct, but
you might just try it again to ensure there are no typos.

Re: [R] RGoogleDocs stopped working
Thanks, Duncan. Finally getting a chance to follow up on this...
I tried again, changing and resetting my password, and trying to specify my
login and password manually in the getGoogleDocsConnection argument list. I
also tried removing either or both of the service and error options. No luck
in any case. I also tried a different Google account, also with no luck.
I've also tried tweaking the URL being generated by the code, and in all
cases, I get a 403: Forbidden error with content Error=BadAuthentication.
I don't really know enough about how authentication is supposed to work to
get much farther. Can you help? Should I try the Google API forum instead?

Subject: Re: [R] RGoogleDocs stopped working
Hi Harlan
I just tried to connect to Google Docs and I had ostensibly the same
problem.
However, the password was actually different from what I had specified.
After resetting it with GoogleDocs, the getGoogleDocsConnection() worked
fine. So I don't doubt that the login and password are correct, but
you might just try it again to ensure there are no typos.
The other thing to look at is the values for Email and Passwd
sent in the URL, i.e. the string in url in your debugging
below. (Thanks for that by the way). If either has special characters,
e.g. , it is imperative that they are escaped correctly, i.e. converted
to %24. This should happen and nothing should have changed, but it is
worth verifying.
So things still seem to work for me. It is a data point, but not one
that gives you much of a clue as to what is wrong on your machine.
