TypeError: initial_value must be str or None, not bytes
#5
Thanks snippsat,

I found the fix right before i saw your reply
and like you said, change the interpreter from Python 3.6 to 2.7
Now the script is running again!!!
I keep running into this issue,
what are some common compatibility issues between 2.7 and 3.6?
