KeyError password

Asked by Ivo Mans

On Lucid with gmailwatcher 10.09.49 I'm getting following error:

** Message: secret service operation failed: Cannot get secret of a locked object

It looks like you have told GmailWatcher NOT to use GnomeKeyring but have not entered the password. If you have, please try editing the account details, add the password again and save it.

Yes, I switched off GnomeKeyring: clumsy with auto logon. Thought I did enter the passwords.
Anyway: some notification would be better than this error on the commandline for this case.
Where do you store the settings, so I could remove my settings?
BTW: version 10.10 behaves just the same.

The settings are stored in DesktopCouch.
You can access them from,

file:///home/USERNAME/.local/share/desktop-couch/couchdb.html

open the above link in the browser.

I'll add the notification.

Thank You.
