Toolbox not remembering login details

Hello,

I've recently changed my password (3rd June) and since then the toolbox is not remembering my login details, I literally have to login every day. The only difference is that the new password contains symbols.

Anyone having a similar issue? I've come across the issue on MacOS and latest version of Windows.

Thanks

Same here. Debian 10.

Same issue on a fresh Arch install, this is somewhat severe :/

Similar issue here. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

My password contains uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers only, and the toolbox is not remembering my login details, I literally have to login everytime I restart it.

Also on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Digging through the logfiles, it seems it requires kwalletd for storage.

So here are the steps taken that worked for me:

  1. Install kwalletd with `sudo apt install kwalletmanager kwalletcli`
  2. Restart Jetbrains Toolbox
  3. The Toolbox inquired for a wallet through the kwallet UI once restarted, create one with GnuPG (but I think a blowfish wallet should work as well)
  4. Logged in again
  5. Restarted the Toolbox again, now login state was preserved.

Hope that works for you.

@... kwalletUI doesnt start on my ZorinOS Thinkpad. Can I read up anywhere about how to do it with blowfish or another alternative? How do I use the wallet with the Toolbox?

Sorry, im a rather new Linux user.

@... Ah sorry totally forgot I had the same workaround here. For more details and alternatives see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/TBX-1620 as it contains alot more info. Not sure what ZorinOS is based on, but maybe you have `libgnome-keyring0` installable through apt or so, kwallet is a bit overblown.
