Login failed on 'gpymusic-get-dev-id'

[astewartau]

I've tried running gpymusic-get-dev-id so that I can start using gpymusic. However, after entering my details, I always get the message "Login failed, verify your email and password." I am sure that I have entered my email and password correctly, and I have tested it numerous times in a browser, where it consistently works, and in the terminal, where it does not.

My email address contains several full-stops - I don't know whether that could be an issue. The password is not hugely long (<15 chars; I know the API has issues with very long passwords).

I am running Python 3.5.3 (python3) on Debian 9.

Any idea how I can debug this?

Can you try this in a REPL for me?

>>> from gmusicapi import Mobileclient
>>> m = Mobileclient()
>>> m.login(email, password, m.FROM_MAC_ADDRESS)

bump?

[Quadronick]

Same here btw.
And result of those code is 'False'

Arch, python 3.6.2.

[christopher-dG]

Okay, so this is definitely on gmusicapi's end then. Can you try creating an app password and using that?

[Quadronick]

Answered to you via email.

I don't see why my answers shouldn't be public for others to benefit from.

There is information about creating and using app passwords here.

[Quadronick]

Sorry.
I did it 'couse of notifications about new mail on my phone's screen. I'm not a frequent visitor here.
I followed your link and Google told me, that this setting is unavailable for my account.
Can I provide you any other debug info?

[christopher-dG]

Is your account managed by any organization or is it a personal one? @astewartau that's a question for you too as it may be related.

[Quadronick]

Personal.

[christopher-dG]

Hm, that's really weird. I've opened simon-weber/gmusicapi#584, maybe we can find some answers there.

[Quadronick]

As it's said "App passwords are enabled only if you use 2-step verification". I don't use it.

[christopher-dG]

Ah that makes sense. If you're interested in changing your password and trying to log in with the new one feel free, but otherwise don't worry about it (that's quite a bit of hassle).

Same here
