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:

2. register as a new user,
3. have the server generate a new password for you (and email it to you), or
4. quit

Registering mypackage to http://pypi.python.org/pypi
Server response (200): OK
I can store your PyPI login so future submissions will be faster.
(the login will be stored in /Users/dbr/.pypirc)
Save your login (y/N)?y
running upload
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.
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.
