Copying here from a comment on another issue by @facelessloser

I'm using creepy with backtrack5 but when i have to press the authorize creepy button nothing happens. I've got firefox set as my default browser and set in my preferred application list

Most probably has to do with invalid conf file. Which version are you using ?

Can you run creepy from the terminal and paste the output here ?

Also take a look in the source code here in github, check the format and contents of creepy.conf and verify that your creepy.conf in your ~/.creepy directory is the same

I checked the creepy.conf file and it was different from the one on your github. how do I run creepy from the terminal. I tried navigating to the creepy folder and running ./cree.py

You can run it with "python creepymap.py" . I am guessing you are missing the cons_string line from the conf file, you can copy paste it from here to your local file

I copied the conf file from here over my conf file. This is what i get from running creepy in terminal

Then your problem is the same with the one described in the issue you posted to before. Check the solution there and if it is not resolved we can continue there. I am closing this for now.
