This happened when installing 9.10 to a friends laptop. Using the live CD I shared the machine so I could pull his windows user folder and save it. Using Remote Desktop Viewer I had his machine open on my desktop, grabbed the folder and tried to drag it to my desktop.

This probably isn't allowed, it does say 'viewer' in the client name. But I thought I'd give it a try. I have other options, exporting the drive, etc... but I thought this would be quick and easy. Not.

This DeniedError is from the keyring system, and it means you either
1) have a password locking your entire keyring, and you entered it wrong when it asked for you to unlock it, or
2) you hit 'Cancel' when it asked to access your keyring.

For these two instances of gnomekeyring.item_create_sync() for local couchdb admin account and for local oauth tokens, I think there is work to be done around conditionally writing the INI file based on keyring access.

Now, to address the reason for your bug, we should definitely fail in this case, but we should tell the user what the problem is.
