{"error":"Unauthorized. Invalid or expired token."}' when using posty-client

[ngphban]

Hi, I've successfully boot-strapped my node with posty-chef cookbook. However when I started using posty-client to add my first domain, I got the same error:

root@ip-172-31-19-216:/srv/posty_api# posty-client domain add example.org
PostyClient::Resources::Domain :: load failed with (401) '{"error":"Unauthorized. Invalid or expired token."}'
create PostyClient::Resources::Domain : example.org
"Unauthorized. Invalid or expired token."

My client config is below:

root@ip-172-31-19-216:/srv/posty_api# cat ~/.posty_client.yml 
development:
  api_url: https://ip-172-31-19-216.ap-southeast-1.compute.internal/posty_api/api/v1
  api_version: v1
  access_token: 5d470051c51180bc1eca07511be64487

This config is created upon bootstrapping as you can see below:

   * template[/root/.posty_client.yml] action create
     - create new file /root/.posty_client.yml
     - update content in file /root/.posty_client.yml from none to 7aa7da

I have no idea why this token is invalid... I'd like to have some additional questions:

1. Are those tokens generated randomly so they're different on each deployment?
2. What does 'development' in above template really mean? Is it related to default "rack_env" value in attribute file? I tried to change this attribute to 'production' but seems the posty-client config is still the same.

Thank you for your great cookbook!

Please try rake api_key:generate and write the new generated api_key to your config file.

1. it should generate a api_key only once
2. posty_client can be used with multiple environments e.g. mailserver1, mailserver2 the development namespace is the default one If you want to use the namespace mailserver1 then you must set ENV['POSTY_ENV'] to mailserver1
