An error occured while retrieving token: The entered and stored passwords do not match.

Hi @vgrem,

First of all, thanks a lot for this library!
I was trying this out to connect to SharePoint Online with Python but I directly got an error.
The code:

from client.auth.AuthenticationContext import AuthenticationContext
from client.ClientContext import ClientContext
from settings import settings

url = "https://mycompany.sharepoint.com/"
username = "yenthe.vanginneken@mycompany.onmicrosoft.com"
password = "password"


ctxAuth = AuthenticationContext(url)
if ctxAuth.acquireTokenForUser(username, password):
  request = ClientRequest(url,ctxAuth)
  requestUrl = "/_api/web/"   #Web resource endpoint
  data = request.executeQuery(requestUrl=requestUrl)

  webTitle = data['d']['Title']
  print "Web title: {0}".format(webTitle)

else:
  print ctxAuth.getLastErrorMessage()

I've added this to a Python file named connector.py. When executing this code I will get the error:

An error occured while retrieving token: The entered and stored passwords do not match.

So, why am I getting this and how should I fix this? On a sidenote: what is the correct way to install this library in Linux? I've now manually downloaded it and added it in the same folder where my connector.py file is but I know thats not really the good way.

Thanks,
Yenthe

Found the issue.
I had the username:
username = "yenthe.vanginneken@mycompany.onmicrosoft.com" and this should be username = "yenthe.vanginneken@mycompany.be"
