Failure to authenticate

Hello team

 

I'm trying to get a workflow on the server to run with a sharepoint output tool.

 

It works in designer, it runs when I run it in the gallery (From designer) and when I upload it onto the server I get no error messages.

 

But when I try to run it manually on the server I get this error

 

ConnectionError('Failed to authenticate.') has type ConnectionError, but expected one of: bytes, unicode.

 

I have the python registry key in registry editor too.

 

Would appreciate anyone's help.
