@aggin23 I'm also having this error, were you able to fix it?

EDIT: WRONG Thread. I don' really remember what I did, but yeah I fixed every error. I think you need to add the Reddit key to your system environment variable.

Just for everyone's benefit - you can set your system environmental variable by writing in the terminal the following commands:

$export REDDIT_CLIENT_ID=YOURCODEFROMREDDITHERE $export REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET=YOURCODEFROMREDDITHERE

This will set the variables which you can then confirm by using the command echo $REDDIT_CLIENT_ID (this will return the code string that you entered)

echo $REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET (this will return the code string that you entered)

I'm new to Linux but from what I gathered you need to do this every time you open a terminal window in order for the script to work.
