You forgot to include the exception message line; probably a `SyntaxError`. — Martijn Pieters, Jul 14 '13 at 09:59

The module won't work on Python 3, as it uses Python 2 specific syntax.

There is an open pull request for supporting Python 3. You can try to use the patch in that pull request, or switch to Python 2.

Update: As of version 0.6 rauth supports Python 3. Install that version or newer.

The [Python 3](https://github.com/litl/rauth/tree/python-3) branch has been tested with Python 3 and should work. – maxcountryman Jul 14 '13 at 21:44
The latest version of rauth implements Python 3.3 support. – maxcountryman Jul 18 '13 at 23:46
