Hi everyone I am getting a real weird error. A while back I started a Github account from an old email and wasn't active with and forgot about. Lately, I have opened a new github account with a different email that has all my current projects.
I had github desktop installed (older version) but like my old account I never really used. So I reopened it to access my new account but it is still connect to my old account. I logged out from the options and signed in via my new account through the web but the actual repositories and folders it is show are still from my old account. I have tried updating, resinstalling and installing github desktop and signing out and signing back in various times and it is still connecting to my old account.
I am thinking there is still come connection with my Github desktop and my old account and need to somehow break the connection via the terminal but not aware of any command to do this.
If I am unable to break this connecting to my old account it seems to me like a major security issue with GitHut desktop. Hopefully thats not the case.
Does anyone have anyways of solving this issue or is this something that I should report to Github?
This also happens when trying to log out from Git Bash, you have to go to "Control Panel" > "User Accounts" > "Credential Manager" > "Windows Credentials" and look for the application. Then, remove the credentials of Github. Hope this is usefull.
I am using Trino to connect to PrestoSQL for my organization in the manner below with python. The MFA authentication requires that I click a link to authenticate. The links usually look something like this: https://query.organization.com:6543/oauth2/token/initiate/b74d83f9e395e4c27d18b
Once I click the link, a JuypterLab window (screenshot below) opens, which requires me to enter my username and password. After I do that, it just keeps spinning eternally and never ends up connecting or going through. (I am using Trino jar jdbc-367, if it matters.)
This only happens in the desktop app version of JupyterLab. This does not happen in the web version of JupyterLab, nor does it happen in JupyterNotebook. On the web versions, when I click the link and enter my username/password, it allows me to connect and to proceed with my query. Is there any reason why JupyterLab desktop version cannot go through?
connect = trino.dbapi.connect(
host='query.org.com',
port=6543,
user='hsimpson',
catalog='cloud9',
http_scheme='https',
auth=trino.auth.OAuth2Authentication()
)

I occasionally receive emails from Google (accounts-noreply#google.com), similar to the following:
Subject: Suspicious sign in prevented
Someone recently tried to use an application to sign in to your Google
Account, ________#gmail.com. We prevented the sign-in attempt in case
this was a hijacker trying to access your account. Please review the
details of the sign-in attempt:

IP Address: 184.72.161.49 (amazonaws.com)
Location: Dixmoor, IL, USA
If you do not recognize this sign-in attempt, someone else might be trying
to access your account. You should sign in to your account and reset your
password immediately. Find out how at
http://support.google.com/accounts?p=reset_pw
If this was you, and you want to give this application access to your
account, complete the troubleshooting steps listed at

Indeed, this was me, as I have an app running on Heroku (hence why the IP address is from amazonaws.com), and I send email directly from my app via Gmail SMTP (I don't think it should matter, but specifically, I'm using the gmail_smtp plugin which I updated for Rails 3.2).
Is there a way to avoid this warning, or a way to whitelist known IPs?
Short Answer
In a web browser (perhaps Chrome/Incognito), log into your Gmail account (the one via which you're trying to send email from your app).
In another browser tab, open https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha -- and follow the steps.
Long Answer
I ended up logging into my Gmail account (mentioned as ________#gmail.com in the Stackoverflow question above) and saw the following warning:
[Note: I'm piecing this Answer together after the fact.] Clicking the link Was it you?, I'm pretty sure I was taken to a page that contained the following, though below it there was a message and button about adding another application to the list:
[Again, I'm pretty sure...] Clicking the button on that page brought me to https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha -- which looks like this:
Clicking Continue brought me to another page:
At that point I just went to my app, and made it send an email.
Note: for general live-testing of email in my app, I have a view at triggers#index with two buttons that send PUT requests to these actions: triggers#send_email and triggers#raise_exception. This enables an admin to go to /triggers and send an email or raise an exception to test if the production system is working correctly as far as being able to send email is concerned. Raising an exception in any of my apps emails details to me via exception_notification.
I had the same problem when I tried sending emails through Gmail SMTP using PHP. You shoud complete the troubleshooting steps provided at the end of the email.
On your Gmail mail box look at the bottom right corner and you can see a Details button. Click on it and then on the pop up window change the suspicious warning settings.
To get this working in dev with Rails 4 i had to enable access for less secure apps.
Visit https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps while signed on to your gmail account and click 'turn on'. Note, this enables access for less secure apps which could come with unintended consequences.
Some apps and devices use less secure sign-in technology, which makes
your account more vulnerable. You can turn off access for these apps,
which we recommend, or turn on access if you want to use them despite
the risks.
To get this working in Rails 4, in addition to enabling access for less secure apps, as described already (Visit https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps while signed on to your gmail account and click 'turn on'. Note, this enables access for less secure apps which could come with unintended consequences.),
one more step may be required in some cases, if account access is still blocked.
If this is the case, also visit https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha and click continue, to enable account access to send via gmail SMTP.

I developed an application in Delphi 2010 that reads XML data from a transactional queue. It works fine if the queue is local or remote and I don't have to set permissions in both cases.
Now I have to convert that application into a Windows Service. I copied and pasted the same application into the service code, but when I try to read the queue I get the "Access denied" error. I'm doing the tests on my local machine.
Some people say that it's a matter of permissions. I found here in Stack Overflow some posts to the same problem but I didn't find the solution.
Any ideas? I'm using Windows 7 as well.
If you are running the application locally, you are running it under your Windows logon credentials. Services by default are launched under a different user account which may not have the same rights as your account does.
Bring up the service manager (start->services.msc), find your service in the list, right click it and select Properties. Then select the Log On tab and change it to a specific account name/password. (Use your account name / password.) You'll then be executing the code using the same credentials so your Access Denied error should go away.
I tried to enable Jenkins CI security according to instructions in the wiki (the “Initial Steps” part). When I save the configuration, the browser asks me for some credentials, but since I haven't set any yet there is no way to get in to create a new user account (according the page above) and as a result I'm getting
Status Code: 401, Exception: Bad credentials
To get back into Jenkins, look at this page: Help! I Locked Myself Out.
To prevent what happened from happening again, I have always found it easiest to enable the security (I'm not sure which method you set), and then add my own user with the "Add" button.
I had the same problem using Chrome on Linux and getting locked out every time by
an auth popup as soon as I saved the security settings.
I found that using either a Chrome "Incognito Window" or Firefox worked Ok.
