Hi, Rocco_Bebel.

Please send the ~/.raidrive/log/cli.log file and /var/log/raidrive/service.log file to support@raidrive.com.
please tell us the type and version of the browser you have installed.

When running sudo raidrivecli add googledrive on Ubuntu, the message “Waiting for authentication to complete in browser” appeared, but no browser opened for authentication.

Solution:

Running the command without sudo allowed the browser to open automatically and complete the authentication with Google Drive:

raidrivecli add googledrive

The issue was that sudo attempted to open the browser as root, blocking access to the graphical user session.
It’s work now :wink: thx
