(Or at least, that's what it's *supposed* to indicate). Firefox should be prompting you to re-enter your password in response to this error. Does this show up anywhere in the sync UI?
If I go to what is normally the "Sync" option in the tools menu, it now shows "Reconnect to Sync". I then log in and it accepts the credentials and then indicates sync will start in the background. But when it does attempt to sync a little while later (with the log output as above), it fails again....and the menu then changes back to "Reconnect to Sync". And around and around again...
Failing that, you can unstick this state by disconnecting and re-connection from sync, or by wiping the data on your self-hosted server and starting over afresh.
Disconnecting and reconnecting seems the least painful of those two choices ;)
Actually, something else I have been wondering - and is probably relevant to other self-hosters like myself, is there a way to purge the actual (data) ie the history/bookmarks/passwords out of the Mozilla Server, without removing the entire account? I've ended up with a copy of unknown validity on Mozilla servers caused by the effects of bugzilla 1003708, with another copy in an unknown state on my self-hosted server that -should- be the most up to date but may or may not be. As you can imagine I'd really like to clean it all up, and especially remove any of that data from the Mozilla servers that need not be there.
Thanks, Reuben
