[SOLVED] MODIStsp package is showing Username and password invalid even when the same credentials are working for NASA earth data search website

[AlkaRani29]

The MODIStsp GUI is not downloading the files and showing Warning: Error in MODIStsp_download: Username and/or password are not valid. Please provide valid ones!
But the credentials are true and are working for NASA earth data search website. Please look into the matter why MODIStsp package is not taking credentials now.

This was fixed with #256, you need to update the package from Github using the command remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp")

I leave this issue opened until CRAN version will be updated.

Issue remains after installing from github ropensci/MODIStsp.

O problema permanece após a instalação do github ropensci/MODIStsp.

Eu havia instalado pelo CRAN (v.2.0.8), deu usuário/senha inválida, então desinstalei, instalei novamente pelo #remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp"), aí funcionou bem (v.2.0.7)

I have updated R to version R version 4.2.1 (2022-06-23 ucrt) and installed remotes::install_github("ropensci/MODIStsp") (v.2.0.7) and get the same result User name and password not valid. I have double checked my login on the earth data website. I have included a reproducible example below.

#--Load Libraries
remotes::install_github("mikejohnson51/AOI")

library(MODIStsp)

#--Make and set working dir
working.dir.path<-file.path(tempdir(), "temp")
dir.create(working.dir.path)
setwd(working.dir.path)

#--Set Area of Interest
AOI = aoi_get(state = "IL")

st_write(AOI, dsn=file.path(working.dir.path), layer="tmp.poly.shp", driver='ESRI Shapefile', delete_layer=TRUE)

spatial.file.path <- paste0(file.path(working.dir.path,"tmp.poly.shp"))

@rsmiller74 it is an issue related to your credentials, as you can see below.

Version 2.0.9, which includes the fix for this issue, was released on CRAN; I'm closing this.
