Credentials issue

[olafx]

Credentials aren't working. Not sure why, error gives no hints. The credentials file exists (it gives a different error when I remove it) and doesn't seem to be a permissions issue, doesn't work with sudo either.

I have also run into this issue. It seems like Scribd modify their site for this to not work. Hope someone can fix this.

Any resolution?

Well you can enter your own _session_expire and _scribd_session values but even then it only downloads the first page.

I have the same problem. I have edited const.py with cookie information, and created scribd_credentials.txt with two single lines (username and password)....

Same issue. Use of the .egg file makes creating a work around frustrating.

Same issue. Use of the .egg file makes creating a work around frustrating.

If you use VSCode, create a launch.json and a settings.json in the .vscode folder. This will allow you to debug. The egg is used only if you run the setup.py to install.

settings.json
{ "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "python.analysis.extraPaths": [ "${workspaceFolder}/scribdl/,${workspaceFolder}/scribdl_downloader,${workspaceFolder}/build" ] } ] }
launch.json (fill credentials.txt with your login credentials, in the root. Also put an audiobook you have access to.
{ // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes. // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes. // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387 "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "name": "Python: scribdl commandline Module", "type": "python", "request": "launch", "module": "scribdl.command_line", "justMyCode": true, "args": [ "https://www.scribd.com/audiobook/237606860/100-Ways-to-Motivate-Yourself-Change-Your-Life-Forever", "-c", "credentials.txt" ], "env": { "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}/scribdl" }, "autoReload": { "enable": true } }

This is where we get to in the debug:
{"form_name":null,"errors":[{"input_name":"login_or_email","msg":"An error occurred please try again."}]}
it is in authorize.py, and right when you get the response on around line 43. I checked the values in the SCRIBD_LOGIN_DATA and they are correct.
This is as far as I have made it so far, so probably need somebody with soup knowlege to help here.

Has there been any headway made with this? I'm having the same issue.
