What steps will reproduce the problem?

It happens randomly, 1 time per 2-3 app launch.

What happened? What should happen?

• The password is no more present (and available).

What device and OS version are you using?

• iPhone 0S 2.2

What version of GRiS are you using? (it's in cydia)

• 0.3.13-1

PS: I consider this program as one of the most useful on my iPhone since i spent in average 1h30 per day on google reader (and I don't get a data plan ^_^ ). I am an iPhone dev too, if i can help in a way, let me know, i am interested in.

The password might not be updated if the app crashes, but it should never disappear. When it does, do other details remain? If the password goes then so should your email address and selection of tags to sync...

If you are able to reproduce this with the iphone simulator, that would be more useful since I don't log any password info on the hardware for obvious reasons...

I can walk you through whatever steps you need to figure out to get it to run, if you can get the source from https://github.com/gfxmonk/google-reader-iphone-sync/tree

as for development, issue 16 is definitely the best thing you could help with, if you are able to figure out what is going on at all there... As I said, I have an iTouch so there's not much I can find out.

I don't get a data plan then hard to test, but know another body who does have a data plan. I feel i get sometime the issue 16, but over the wifi.

For this issue, the question is : does the app use the KeyChain ? (just a idea like that).

I plan to make the app run in the simulator soon (I will let you know then).

the app doesn't currently use a keychain, it stores the data in a plist file with the rest of your preferences. I'm not too happy about this, but I've tried the keychain route and had absolutely no success...

So far, I didn't really tried the keychain, it's on my to do list for next week (and it have to work). It's can be the way to solve this issue (but bye bye friendly tests on the simulator, or a switch have to be design)...

I did get the app running in the simulator, get 2 compiles error, (I did surely something wrong), I will try again tomorrow.

I have close to the same problem. I lose all of my preferences every time I close the app except for my username and password.

This thing happen to me too time to time, randomly.

Same here, regardless of WiFi or data plan. From time to time my settings - including username & password - just disappear.

Yup. Happens here too - iPod touch running 2.2 firmware. Maybe is has to do with upgrading? Maybe the file is not writable or something anymore?

I haven't had time to upgrade to 2.2 yet.

Good point on the permissins; something may have changed. Can someone (running 2.2) give me the output from the command:

ls -la /var/mobile/GRiS/

Here the output from my iPhone 3G on 2.2:

I'm affected by this bug too (I could not set my real password). For me it works if I tap the "Done" button beside the "Settings" title. If I finish my input with the blue keyboard button ("Fertig" in german), the "Done" button disappears but the new password is lost after restarting the app.

thankyou for that last comment, the added info helped me narrow it down.

Fixed as of 0.3.15
