Pyimgur code works on Windows, not on Ubuntu

Question

I have a simple code that creates an album in imgur, via pyimgur. This is the code:

@app.route('/get_album')
def get_album():
    im = pyimgur.Imgur(CLIENT_ID)
    new_album = im.create_album()
    return new_album.link

(I tried with im = pyimgur.Imgur(CLIENT_ID) line before the route handlers as well, same thing happens)

On Windows, everything is perfectly fine. However, when I upload the code to my VPS, I get the following error when I try to do something with the api: Traceback (most recent call last):

I updated flask to the latest version, and I've been using pyimgur 4, latest release I got from github (pip install doesnt work so I had to install it manually, on both Windows and Ubuntu, since some error about setup.py pops out. I used python setup.py install command)

Answer 1

OK, so I have found a solution. The solution was a change in requests module, which probably came along with updated flask or something, so the old method didn't behave like it used to. I updated the requests as well on my VPS (forgot to do it when upgrading flask), and the issue is now solved.
