Jackett: yggtorrent - new address https://www2.yggtorrent.se/

Created on 5 Feb 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: Jackett/Jackett

yggtorrent just moved to https://www2.yggtorrent.se/.

I am running Version 0.12.1669.0.

I had never used YGGcookie before but it now seems to be the only way to configure yggtorrent in jackett. So I added YGGcookie as a new indexer, changed "ws" to "se" in both fields, found and copied the cookie and it tested OK right away. Is this the way to do it?

Thanks.

the YGGTorrent website has changed their domain to .se

You should be able to get the Jackett YGGTorrent _Indexer_ working again as follows:

  1. update Jackett to 0.12.1681 _(or newer)_
  2. access your jackett dashboard and use the _wrench icon_ to edit your YGGTorrent indexer config.
  3. Check/Set the Site Link to https://yggtorrent.se/ and
  4. Set the Search and download URL to www2.yggtorrent.se
  5. Click OKAY
  6. if you get an error, click CLOSE then edit again and click OKAY. it should save the second time.

Works for me.

Yes, yggtorrent is such a pain in the backside whenever they change their domain.
Normally you would be able to use the Jackett Dashboard to edit the yggtorrent config and update the Site Link to the new domain.
But because the yggtorrent.ws domain is returning ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED instead of the usual redirect, the Jackett yggtorrent indexer config is broken, so you cannot easily fix the Site Link yourself using the Jackett dashboard.
So using yggcookie is a good way to continue access to the yggtorrent site via Jackett, until we publish the next release with the fixed yggtorrent indexer, after which you will be able to go back to using the regular yggtorrent indexer again.
I'll will post an update here with instructions as soon as I've built the fix and published the next release of Jackett.

@garfield69 Could you add the backup links? https://www2.yggtorrent.se/engine/domains?attempt=1

@ngosang there is little point. the backup links are just redirects to the principal domain.

But the problem is when yggtorrent indexer is deleted from jacket.
I cannot re add it...

the key icon on yggtorrent leads to an error with me

Request to Jackett server failed

the others indexers does not have this problem

This has been fixed in the latest version of Jackett. Please, update and try to re-add.
