Bad username or password?
I have a praw.ini filled with all 4 credentials.
When trying to run shreddit I get this:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/shreddit", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/shreddit/app.py", line 44, in main shredder = Shredder(default_config, args.user) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/shreddit/shredder.py", line 28, in __init__ self._connect() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/shreddit/shredder.py", line 85, in _connect raise ShredditError("Bad username or password") shreddit.util.ShredditError: 'Bad username or password'
That's got to be a bug, as when I copy and paste the given username and password from praw.ini into reddit-login on the website it works without a problem.
Do you mean when you try to log in usually using the front page / login page?
And do you have the username and password variables filled out (as well as the other keys you should have from "making your own app"?).
Thanks for responding!
Yes, when testing the same user/pass-combo on reddit frontpage/loginpage it works just fine, so theres 100% no typo on my side in praw.ini
Yes. All four credentials in praw.ini are filled in. Including these two I got from "making your own app".
Let me know when you need some more info to support you.
I believe you might have picked "web app" instead of "script" when choosing your application type.
I had this happen because my account had 2 factor authentication enabled, the soloution was to disable it and then re-enable it when I was done with the script. I don't think Reddit supported 2FA at the time this issue was created but figured I'd mention it for anyone else.
Me too; I just enabled 2FA and it stopped working. Looks like they aren't compatible.
This is definitely not related to 2FA. I have this on my account disabled but error persist. Fix is needed quickly as time running out.
