I'm having this same problem. I'm using Linux Mint 18.1 Serena Cinnamon 64-bit. This error message pops up a second or two right after I close LBRY. 😞

I've got the same problem since updating to the latest LBRY version (0.9.1). I'm running LBRY on Windows 10.

@kauffj: I can no longer reproduce this on Linux, either on a dev build or RC8. Is it still happening for you?

[PetSte]

Not sure if I can reply to this mail, but I'll try. I just reproduced the problem on my Windows 10. So for me, it's still there.

@PetSte: 0.10.0 just came out with many changes, including some in parts of the code related to this. Could you give it another shot with 0.10.0? Thanks.

[PetSte]

Alex,

After downloading v10 manually (from Github), like you asked, lbry doesn't seem to recognize me anymore. I'm asked to enter my email and early acces verification code, and I get the error 'could not authenticate user'. I'm positive the code is correct.

So now I can't ue LBRY or acces my wallet anymore. Any solutions?

I just upgraded and I'm having the same problem PetSte is having.

@PetSte @Snarkly :disappointed:

Can you send your email addresses to [email protected]?

If you're comfortable using the command line interface you can still move your credits. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until we get a fix out.

If you are comfortable using the CLI, it'd be helpful if you could send me the output of the status command as well.

And sending a wallet address wouldn't hurt either :wink:

[Snarkly]

I sent you my email using proton mail. I also open LBRY using the command terminal and I took this screenshot for you. There were a few errors I noticed in the command terminal.

[Snarkly]

Thanks for the verification code kauffj, it seemed to work fine. Also when I closed LBRY I noticed I didn't get the javascript error I was getting before.

[PetSte]

Was this a special verification code or did you simply lose/mistake your own code? If it's the former, could you send me one as well, Jeremy? I've sent you my email address earlier.

[kauffj]

@PetSte no new code, you should be able to get in fine. I take it you are still seeing this even on the latest version? If so, I'll try to dig deeper.

[PetSte]

I don't get the Javascript error, but that's probably only because I can't seem to login. I'm still getting the 'could not authenticate user' error.

[kauffj]

0.12 will drop the necessity of codes and fix existing verification issues.
