Unable to authenticate in anaconda

New project for OpenCap, which is a new software package to estimate 3D human movement dynamics from smartphone videos. OpenCap strongly relies on OpenSim.

Unable to authenticate in anaconda

Post by Shelby Desroches » Tue Aug 13, 2024 8:41 am

I am following the OpenCap processing steps at https://github.com/stanfordnmbl/opencap-processing. I have gotten to the step where I run python createAuthenticationEnvFile.py. It then asks for my OpenCap username and password. When I try to type these in it will not let me type anything. I am not sure why this may be, but I have restarted and tried several times.

Hi Shelby,

Depending on what interface you are in, it won't actually show the cursor moving when you type in the user name in password. Trying typing them both in (hitting enter each time when you are done typing) and let us know if you still run into an issue.

Hope this helps,

hello Shelby,

I also encountered the same problem as you. Later, I tried to modify the content of the "utilsAuthentication.py" script and solved the problem. I replaced the [getpass]function with a [input] function in the "utilsAuthentication.py" script. You can try it and hope this will help you.
