Common Errors & Fixes

SMTPAuthenticationError

This error is caused when your email server refuses to log in, whether if it's because of incorrect credentials or a new sign-in location. If you are using Google, make sure you are using app passwords and not your account password.

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'secret_key.txt'

This error is caused if the secret_key.txt file is missing. This should be generated each time daily_tasks.py is run.

1. Run daily-tasks.py ($ python daily_tasks.py).
2. If that doesn't work, make sure daily_tasks.py is being executed in the correct directory and run it again.
