ConnectionError: Couldn't connect to IBMQ server: error during login: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

I run only the following commands:

import qiskit as qsk
print(qsk.IBMQ.stored_accounts())
qsk.IBMQ.load_accounts()

and i have already created an account(with account save command). I have tried closing the antivirus software. Any ideas? Thanks.

Answer 1

Try to run this code:

from qiskit import IBMQ

IBMQ.save_account('your_api_token')

And for access:

IBMQ.load_account()# without the 's'

Hope this helps.
