Error: Not connected to the Internet

[NsValleyMan]

Have I overlooked some instructions some where? I am receiving the following error message...

User ID: 2EE66332E241C627A2FA64C7E986A3C0

Connecting to Yik Yak server...

Error: Not connected to the Internet

Is this an issue related to the user_id issues? I have tried manually trying some of the ones listed around but still receive this error.

Any Ideas?

Cheers

I had this issue too, I incremented the last version number in the useragent variable in API.py (line 190) to read: "Yik Yak/2.1.0.23 CFNetwork/711.1.12 Darwin/14.0.1" and it worked for me.

Brilliant!!! Simply brilliant. thank you. This worked instantly.

Looks like I have some posting issue now, reading through the issues about that now. But the fix from unsover definitely fixed my connection issue

[djtech42]

It's still not connecting with the new user agent for me.

[NsValleyMan]

I can connect, and receive Yaks now after the user agent fix and the modification I made to encode to uff and strip. Program was crashing on a uff-8 char.

I cannot however Post. Everything else seems to work. Great project I must say.

The posting isn't working because the user ID generation needs to be updated to their new format. Have you tried using one of the user IDs in the validIDs text file included with the project?

I'm still unable to connect with both the user agent fix and the utf-fix. I wonder if Yik Yak banned me specifically? I've tried using different user IDs, but it won't connect with any of them.

Working fine last night;, can't connect regardless of what I do now though.

[djtech42]

They changed the key today at noon. I just changed the user agent and the key to the new Android key, so try connecting again. It fixed it for me. Some of the functions aren't working for me now and are saying to update the app (which means the authorization is incorrect), but I am able to connect again.

[chadius-maximus]

Still doesn't work for me, even after changes in API.py

[djtech42]

Try reverting to the commit right before the last one and connecting. That one doesn't work for me, but it might work for you since it worked for a couple other people.

[chadius-maximus]

If you are talking about the fix another user made with adding 0.0.1, then it doesn't work either. I guess I will just play with it some more and report if I figure out a fix

Odd, I'm still able to connect, although my IP is rotating pretty consistently (Natt'd network). I am indeed experiencing the same problems as @NsValleyMan, unable to post.

Whoops... I was messing around a lot with the old ID's and guess I got them all banned. Here's some more ID's that are not banned and I won't touch them this time (I was mass upvoting with the old ID's, yeah I know not the best idea)

Edit: Nevermind, still can't post with those ID's either, not sure

[deveyNull]

So I have been using that list for a while for upvoting and not had any
problems, do an implementation like I have here to hide that you're using a
tool. Pretty much just randomize time between votes, makes it impossible
for server to catch on.

for name in listOfNames:
while upcounter < numberUps:
upcounter += 1

time.sleep(random.uniform(5, 60))
remoteyakker.id =
name
upvoted =
remoteyakker.upvote_yak(currentlist[voteYakNum-1].message_id)
