[SOLVED] MODIStsp package is showing Username and password invalid even when the same credentials are working for NASA earth data search website

[AlkaRani29]

The MODIStsp GUI is not downloading the files and showing Warning: Error in MODIStsp_download: Username and/or password are not valid. Please provide valid ones! But the credentials are true and are working for NASA earth data search website. Please look into the matter why MODIStsp package is not taking credentials now.

This was fixed with #256, you need to update the package from Github using the command remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp")

[ranghetti]

I leave this issue opened until CRAN version will be updated.

[rsmiller74]

Issue remains after installing from github ropensci/MODIStsp.

[EvertonTLima]

O problema permanece após a instalação do github ropensci/MODIStsp.

Eu havia instalado pelo CRAN (v.2.0.8), deu usuário/senha inválida, então desinstalei, instalei novamente pelo #remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp"), aí funcionou bem (v.2.0.7)

[rsmiller74]

I have updated R to version R version 4.2.1 (2022-06-23 ucrt) and installed remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp") (v.2.0.7) and get the same result User name and password not valid. I have double checked my login on the earth data website. I have included a reproducible example below.

remotes::install_github("mikejohnson51/AOI") remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp", force=TRUE) packageVersion("MODIStsp")

working.dir.path<-file.path(tempdir(), "temp") dir.create(working.dir.path) setwd(working.dir.path)

@rsmiller74 it is an issue related to your credentials, as you can see below.

Version 2.0.9, which includes the fix for this issue, was released on CRAN; I'm closing this.

[olatunjijohnson]

I'm having the same issue. Tried installing the GitHub version but still have the error:

  Username and/or password are not valid. Please provide
             valid ones!`

[jfmas]

Same issue: I get the error GDAL version in use: 3.4.1 [Tue Apr 2 12:54:54 2024] MODIStsp --> Starting processing [Tue Apr 2 12:54:54 2024] Accessing http server at: https://e4ftl01.cr.usgs.gov/MOLA/MYD21A1D.061/ [Tue Apr 2 12:54:58 2024] Retrieving list of available Aqua Files for Year 2003 Error in MODIStsp_download(modislist, proc_opts$out_folder_mod, download_server, : Username and/or password are not valid.

[jinxulisduniversity]

I ran into the same problem, but after updating with remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp"), it still doesn't work, is there any solution?

[calvus17]

The same authentication problem here. May I suggest revisiting this issue?

[jfmas]

Yes please!

@olatunjijohnson @jfmas @jinxulisduniversity @calvus17 This package is currently unmaintained. Anyone who wants to contribute is invited to fix it (probably the reason would be a recent change in the USGS API) and submit a PR (as done last year for https://github.com/ropensci/MODIStsp/pull/256). If the PR will not be accepted, tag @maelle (I have no more rights to accept them).

[kirstentyler]

I would also appreciate a fix for this!

[maelle]

Is there anyone willing to take over the package?

The same authentication problem here. May I suggest revisiting this issue?

I'm looking into it. I cannot get authentication to work towards Nasa website even with a simple httr call without modistsp package. Something seems to be changed at Nasa site.

Also, the package used for this (httr) is no obsolete could be replaced with httr2 while fixing this.

[pkautio]

Update: New working authentication code is in testing. MODIStsp has been updated to use Bearer token authentication and httr2 package.

[LouiseLeroux]

Hi. Where can we find the updated version of MODIStsp? We are facing the same issue :) Many thanks

[EvertonTLima]

O problema ainda persiste.

[LaughingKing1]

Was there a fix for this issue, I'm getting the same error?
