[RESOLVED] After update to Meteor 1.4.2.7 - "Error: Already registered the google OAuth service"

Hi,

I’ve just updated my Meteor to the newest patch 1.4.2.7 and now I get the following error when starting the server.

What must I do to fix this?

Thank you

So far I’ve tried the following without much success.

Step 1:
removed google accounts related packages
meteor remove accounts-google google-config-ui

dropped loginServiceConfiguration and oauth_pendingCredentials collections from my mongodb
db.meteor_accounts_loginServiceConfiguration.drop() db.meteor_oauth_pendingCredentials.drop()
The server now boots successfully, and login is possible with accounts-password package

Step 2:
Added again google accounts related packages
meteor add accounts-google google-config-ui

Now, when I launch meteor, I get the same error again

Found the culprit!

meteor remove percolate:google-api

Meteor now launches successfully.

Ant ideas what could be the reason for percolate:google-api causing the error?

It appears that percolate:google-api was conflicting with accounts-google by trying to register the OAuth service twice. Why are you using both; don’t they basically do the same thing?

percolate:google-api is a wrapper package to handle HTTP POST/GET requests to Google APIs, not only authentication like accounts-google

From percolate:google-api GitHub’s page

Google API

A Meteor library to interact with Google’s API.

Works with accounts-google to automatically handle refresh/access token changes and give you a simple API to make calls.

From what I was able to understand the newest Meteor 1.4.2.7 has ´renamed´ the google package to google-oauth. percolate:google-api was using google package and so with this newest version both google and google-oauth packages were installed, and registering the OAuth service.

I was able to get a local version of percolate:google-api package working by changing that dependency
If you’re interested here’s the issue in github

That looks like an issue, alright. Good call.
