[torrentgalaxy] (testing) Exception (torrentgalaxy): Relogin failed: Parse error about jackett HOT 29 OPEN

There are still some issues being worked out with their checkpoint solution, and they don't want to throw the combined public-tracker-using userbases of Jackett and Prowlarr (maybe DuckieTV too) at it just yet. There is a potential solution in mind, but we're waiting for TGx to give us the green light.

Keeping it marked as down just to remind me to check for updates.

from jackett.

I'm already in contact with the admins, in particular Mafketel.

As a general comment to everyone, please do not ask TGx for updates, you're more likely to pester them than anything else.

'same here' comments are not helpful, please stop posting them. If you really feel you need to show you're also affected, thumbs up react to the initial post.

any update on the issue that you can share?

from jackett.

Removed. When/If admins allow access again we can always add it back.

from jackett.

Updates will be posted here.

If we can determine how long the cookie is good for, that will help us decide what to do next.
I think If the cookie cannot last the day, then its not worth implementing.
Anything shorter that than would make the indexer unsuitable for *arr usage.

from jackett.

Experiencing the same symptoms and behavior except I am running Jackett inside of a linuxserver docker container.

from jackett.

It is up now, with new URL: https://torrentgalaxy.to/ This is where every official URL is automatically redirecting to. I will raise a PR for the update to URL as well.

Edit: Not needed for a change as already present.

from jackett.

v0.22.260

from jackett.

I get both this and

Test search in TorrentGalaxy => Found no results while trying to browse this tracker. This may be an issue with the indexer, or other indexer settings such as search freeleech only etc.

I don't know if it is related

from jackett.

From one of the admins:

The checkpoint is a new feature and still in beta testing. I'm not certain if it will stay or be discarded. Right now it's a work in progress.

So basically we wait and see. If they keep it, I'll message again.

from jackett.

BTW, FYI: TGX is down for more than 18 hours now, 20, I presume at the time of posting this.

• https://torrentgalaxy.to/ TGX is offline. Updates will be posted in case of any changes.
  Yup @garfield69 . I have been active on reddit due to this. There is no official update as well. 😢

Uptrends shows 'up' for some checkpoints, but checking with VPN shows the site returning TGX is offline. Updates will be posted in case of any changes.

from jackett.

@garfield69 I asked around after the latest downtime and all, so mafketel commented. This is just an update. :)

thanks for the update!

from jackett.

May as well add my own name to the list on this one. Ever since they implemented the GalaxyFence protocol, it looks like the Jackett interface stopped working. I tried loading FlameSolverr but it doesn't look like it's doing squat in case the Captcha comes up ... so .. proverbial creek, meet paddle!

from jackett.

same as @snodemon540, docker container with linuxserver.io img

from jackett.

There's a new checkpoint:

It runs the Javascript seen in the log above, with the source /common/js/shades.js:

if (typeof timestamp == 'undefined') {
	shades2.get(function(components) {
		timestamp = shades2.x64hash128(components.map(function(pair) {
			return pair.value
		}).join(), 31);
		xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
		xhr.open('POST', '/hub.php?a=vlad&u=' + new Date().getTime());
		xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
		xhr.send(encodeURI('fash=' + timestamp));
	});
}

I assume this would be doable with C#, but 🤷

It can be bypassed using cookie login (no UA needed, although it's IP-locked). The test selector would therefore need to be changed, to allow for those with accounts. The test path should probably be changed too, as there's no check on the homepage.

The site only allows one search every ~8s, if you haven't passed the captcha as well, so users would have to access https://torrentgalaxy.to/galaxyfence.php?f (or domain equivalent), complete the captcha, wait for the checkpoint to complete, and then pull the cookie (consists of both PHPSESSID= and fencekey=).

The proxyninja proxy appears to break the checkpoint for now.

@garfield69 do we change to cookie login? fencekey lasts an hour (but that was the case when we used captcha login too), and PHPSESSID last for the session (shocker, I know). We could leave this open with a Rewrite in C# label for a C# contributor.

from jackett.

Are you saying that it is impractical to continue using this cardigann indexer, because even with the switch to the cookie method, having performed all the steps on the browser to fetch a good cookie, the next time you go to use the indexer the session-id will have changed, necessitating the need to go fetch the cookie all over again?
If so then we might as well remove the indexer and flag for a C# solution, which is not going to be forthcoming any time soon.

from jackett.

I restarted Jackett a few times with that test indexer and it worked fine. I closed and restarted the browser with the same IP, I was presented with another checkpoint when I accessed TGx, however the indexer in Jackett continued to work with the old cookie (I tested restarting Jackett again as well).

This was over the space of ~20mins, so I'm not sure how long the cookie is valid for (there may be some IP check server-side), but it seems to work ok.

from jackett.

Well that was short-lived, it didn't last over an hour :/

I'll sign in, message the admins, see if they can help at all.

from jackett.

same error here

from jackett.

Reporting same concern with jackett > Exception (torrentgalaxy): Relogin failed: Parse error
attempted to restart services and reconfigure with no resolution

from jackett.

Same problem here on Jackett.

Tho i solved the captcha and got this - Query successful, but no results were returned from your indexer. This may be an issue with the indexer, your indexer category settings, or other indexer settings such as search freeleech only etc.

from jackett.

still cant add too jackett

still cant add too jackett

Not yet fixed yet it seems. I am trying on Prowlarr

from jackett.

I agree. Cannot add setup on Jackett yet. The indexer setting does not seem to work and is freezed, and instead just launches the site in a new tab. Copy paste also does not work. :(

10 minutes of inactivity. Max 15 minutes of inactivity.
Tried and tested as a user over the last 2 weeks. Even with the .mx domain, same inactivity period is taken. IP does not change, but session expiration or demise is set by TGX.
