Did google block your app password?

You can also check in .storage/core.config_entries for tfa_password and make sure it looks good.

I dont see any indications of a blocked app password in the Google acoount, tfa_password looks ok.
If I roll back to 0.8.1.14.1 everything works ok again.

If that doesn't work can you attach some logs.

Sure thing thanks... These were after the restart when I updated, do you need any other specific logs?

Error: login failed: 2fa: startup failed
If error persists you might need to change config and restart.

You said it was the same error but I couldn't tell from your log so I was just verifying it. The first message has a link to Google i was checking you saw the same thing.

Did you try any of the solutions mentioned in the other messages?

I enabled debug logging and saw it was complaining about not being able to login but also saw that all my passwords were in plain text in the log, I know I could have removed them before uploading but I decided to try completely remove the integration and install from fresh with the latest version and it now works ok. Didnt have to create a new app password so something must have got corrupt on the upgrade fro 0.8.1.14.1 to 0.8.1.15.
