Subject: fix version string being unpopulated

* fix version string being empty
+ add error code 17 to the README
resolves #2

Error Code 17 means one of two things
a) the configured user credentials are not correct, therefore the user is not able to properly login
b) the configured user does not have the correct permissions to interact with the api
