Installation issue

[jchang28]

Hi Brandon,

Need some help with installation - I've followed your instructions, but I'm not getting any feedback/response from slackbot, but I do get some output from the terminal:

Have you seen this message before and is there some way to verify if the installation is correct? (I'm not familiar with python).

Thanks,

Jeff

Hey Jeff, there were some changes to the code and instructions (It wasn't clear that the base url had to be different, but that should be accounted for in the new config.json file). Try pulling the latest from master and see if it works now!

In regards to the error message it seems like it might be an issue with either the version of python or the version of requests that was installed.

This may be of help.

Let me know how it goes.

@brandonshin the Stackoverflow link helped for me. Thanks.

Specifically, I needed to do these steps:

1. sudo apt-get install python-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev
2. pip install requests[security]
3. start a new session

I'm on Python 2.6
