Incorrect padding while decoding the password #91

Closed parthmehta closed 9 years ago

After successful registration and receiving the password, i tried to send a message and got the following error :

D:\whatsapp\yowsup-master\yowsup-master\src>yowsup-cli.py -c config.example -d --send XXXXXXXXXXXX Hello

Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\whatsapp\yowsup-master\yowsup-master\src\yowsup-cli.py", line 232, in

password = identity or password if args["v1"] else base64.b64decode(password ) File "C:\Python27\lib\base64.py", line 76, in b64decode raise TypeError(msg) TypeError: Incorrect padding Its running on Python 2.7 and even I have added a proper password in the config file.

User error, make sure you copy the whole password including the trailing '==' characters

Thanks shirioko.

I tried with suffixing multiple equal to ("=") signs at the end but had no luck . Even tried the following :

base64.b64decode(s + '=' * (4 - len(s) % 4)) where s is the string to decode.

When I decode it on online decoders it was decoding it. So later I just changed the password by making a --exists call from yowsup and updated the config.example file with the new credentials and now its decoding but giving a Auth failure error as below :

D:\whatsapp\yowsup-master\yowsup-master\src>yowsup-cli.py -c config.example -d - -send 91XXXXXXXXXX "hello"
