Error 401: Unauthorized

[megaslothy]

I have configured App Token, App Secret, Access Token and Access Token Secret in tokens.txt file. My app is Dedicated. I always get the error 401: Unauthorized. Is it necessary to set up something else?

Thanks

There shouldn't be other set up necessary. Some guesses to what might be wrong:

• White spaces at the end of the lines in tokens.txt file file (tabs, spaces) - I checked the source, and it's possible it trimmed it in the wrong order. I've updated the code, so you can re-download the tool and check if the problem persists.
• Are you sure the corrects tokens.txt is being loaded? Did you place it in the same folder as mkm.exe?
• Did you provide the correct tokens? They should be listed in the same order as written on your account page on MKM.
• You might have pasted the tokens incorrectly. When you copy from the webpage, whitespace is lacking between the text and the tokens. Make sure no additional letters are present.

I updated the code, so try to re-download it. It now tells you what tokens it tried to use when you receive a 401 error.

I downloaded the app again and have checked (and typed) the token information but still getting the same error. I can't see the message with error tokens also. The tokens.txt file that I use is the one generated when executing mkm.exe without tokens.txt.

Did you use this link to download the new version?

Make sure you overwrite the old one. I just tried downloading it, and exectuing with a mock-file and get this display:

  D:\>mkm get account
  Error: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
  App token = 'a'
  App secret = 'b'
  Access token = 'c'
  Access token secret = 'd'

I used the correct link and re-downloaded again from your message. Still getting the same error and don't see the error tokens.

And the tokens.txt:

URL=https://www.mkmapi.eu/ws/v1.1/
App token=a
App secret=b
Access token=c
Access token secret=d

No idea what it's happening

[martsve]

Allright, the language made it skip the error.. I corrected it to check for error code, and it should now display the token used when it fails.

[megaslothy]

Now It displays the token used but it is exactly the token information I have in my MKM account page and I still have the 401 Error.

Ok..

• You are sure the app type is listed as Dedicated?
• Try to Renew tokens
• I updated the program force en-Gb culture. Maybe your local-language settings somehow messes up the OAuth headers. I kind of doubt it, but let's see..

[megaslothy]

Worked!

The app is Dedicated and I renewed tokens before so it seems to be some problem with my local language.

Thanks!!
