[cedricloneux]

App lauching with all env variables throw this error istantly.

Error: ReqwestError(reqwest::Error { kind: Decode, source: Error("missing field access_token", line: 1, column: 95) })

Runned of macOS, tried homebrew version and release 0.4.0

[Dakwal]

Getting this on Windows using Cargo and release 0.4.0. I noticed the reqwest version in the Cargo.lock is 0.10.10, which may be old.

I'm getting this too on MacOS homebrew release.

I'm getting this on Arch Linux.

See https://github.com/manojkarthick/reddsaver/issues/44, does your password have a dollar sign in it? If so, escape the dollar sign with a backslash.

[Tamnac]

Getting the same issue, no dollar sign in my password

edit: it seems the system username was conflicting with it. I must have missed it in the readme. Not sure if this is the same for anyone else.

I had the same error. As per instructions, you might need to unset the USERNAME env var.

Check it out by running:

reddsaver -e reddsaver.env -d reddsaver --show-config  2>&1 | grep -i USERNAME

If USERNAME = your computer's username and not your reddit's username, then there is a conflict.

In that case, you need to:

unset USERNAME
