“setup.py upload” is failing with “Upload failed (

问题:

When running..

python setup.py sdist register upload

..I get the following output:

running register
We need to know who you are, so please choose either:
 1. use your existing login,
 2. register as a new user,
 3. have the server generate a new password for you (and email it to you), or
 4. quit

Submitting dist/mypackage-1.2.1.tar.gz to http://pypi.python.org/pypi
Upload failed (401): You must be identified to edit package information

It's prompting to save the login details, despite ~/.pypirc already containing this. It then fails to upload files for a package I own, and have full write-access to.

回答1:

Just found this page, which solves the issue:

I also noticed that while it was asking me to save my login information, and I hit Y everytime, it still asked me for the username and password. It turned out that it was saving the information incorrectly as follows:

[pypi]
username:dcramer
password:*******

Changing it out to this solved the problems:

[server-login]
username:dcramer
password:********

The above content goes into the .pypirc file in the user's home directory.

Ugh.. I think this may be a good time to give distribute a try..

None of the changes to ~/.pypirc listed here worked for me.

This worked for me, with no changes to ~/.pypirc. I added "-r https://www.python.org/pypi" to the command line:

python setup.py register sdist upload -r https://www.python.org/pypi

My ~/.pypirc looks like this

[distutils]
index-servers: pypi

[pypi]
username: dlink
password: ******** (the real one)

I have the same problem， This is my solution.

The python version is 2.7.7, my windows version is Windows-7-6.1.7601-SP1.

here is my .pypirc file

[distutils]
index-servers=pypi

[pypi]
repository = https://pypi.python.org/pypi

[server-login]
username = user
password = password

Notice:

In windows, A file is not allowed named as “.pypirc”，plz，refer to：

Rename files to empty filename in Windows

Then put you ".pypirc" file in the same folder with "setup.py"

At last:

run :

python setup.py sdist upload

or:

python setup.py sdist register upload

I hope this will be help,thank you!

I have this problem and solved it by putting the file .pypirc under my home directory (~/), as the last past of the first comment suggests.

I didn't have the need to modify the name of the section "pypi" of the file pypirc for "server-login", as suggested also in the first comment.

回答5:

I changed [distutils] to [pypirc] as per the docs and this worked for me.

Here is my ~/.pypirc file:

[pypirc]
index-servers =
    pypi
    pypitest

[pypi]
repository=https://pypi.python.org/pypi

[pypitest]
repository=https://testpypi.python.org/pypi

[server-login]
username:stav
password:****

回答6:

I had this problem, due to my own fault but hopefully this may help someone else who makes this same mistake.

I'm using python 3 on Linux Ubuntu, during registration I issued the setup command using sudo! The result was the .pypirc file in my home directory was owned by root and wasn't readable when trying to perform a module upload immediately after as a none privileged user.

By changing the ownership of the file to myself, the issue was resolved.

I ran into the same problem. I'm on a new OS X Sierra. Adding [server-login] entry to ~/.pypirc seemed to fix it
