oauth issue about python-tumblpy

[michaelhelmick]

Try running ntpd -q in terminal. That will reset your system clock. That is a possible solution that has worked for many.

i am running this in amazon AWS EC2 instance...

raise TumblpyAuthError('Seems something couldn't be verified with your OAuth junk. Error: %s, Message: %s' % (response.status_code, response.content))
tumblpy.exceptions.TumblpyAuthError: Seems something couldn't be verified with your OAuth junk. Error: 401, Message: oauth_timestamp is too far away; we believe it is now 1390665810, you sent 1390644199, 21611 seconds away

Maybe make sure nptd is running?

auth_url = auth_props['auth_url']

OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET = auth_props['oauth_token_secret']

print 'Connect with Tumblr via: %s' % auth_url

Hrm, it's really hard to debug without actually being in the system. Maybe google: ec2 oauth timestamp wrong

or something of the sort? Sorry I can't be of more help :(

ntpd is getting removed after few minutes...one thing i noticed is before running and after running the script throws same error but with only 1 second difference...

total time difference is 6 hours which is 21610 seconds

[srinivasuk]

thanks for your insights...infact your program showed what could be wrong...

even though the date command give exact time or close to my system desktop clock...

Sat Jan 25 10:33:34 UTC 2014

but the program says 6 hours apart..

You're welcome! Hope you eventually figure it out with some research!
