Azure storage queues - create_queue - getting 'binascii.Error: Incorrect padding'

EDIT: Where can I find my "user" and "password" for my storage account in Azure ? (see below).

I simply try to create a queue with the python sdk in python3.4 but with this code:

from azure.storage import QueueService

q = QueueService("user", "password")
q.create_queue('testqueue')

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "new.py", line 4, in <module>
    q.create_queue('testqueue')
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/azure/storage/queueservice.py", line 151, in create_queue

return binascii.a2b_base64(s)
binascii.Error: Incorrect padding

The thing is that I'm trying to create a linux auto-scaling farm of ubuntu VMs with a single queue. when this queue contains more than x message, the farm scales up and instead of using 1 VM, it uses 2 or 3.

I already have my VMs , I configured the availability set, the load-balancing but I'm stopped on queues.

It somebody could help, it would be great!

Thanks

I've finally found an answer here Where can I find my Azure account name and account key?

Thanks to Jason Hogg - MSFT for poiting my real problem, I thought it was another thing.
