Bug report

Your Environment

  • Netflix add-on version: 1.11.0
  • Operating system version/name: Raspbian Buster

Used Operating system:

  • [ ] Android
  • [ ] iOS
  • [x] Linux
  • [ ] OSX
  • [x] Raspberry-Pi
  • [ ] Windows

Describe the bug




After successfully obtaining the NFAuthentication.key, I try to log in. First I get prompted for the key file, which I provide, then the PIN, which I enter, then my password (which strikes me as odd), but I give that too.

Expected behavior



I would be expected to log in.

Actual behavior



I get an error:

500 Server Error: Internal Server Error for url: https://www.netflix.com/api/shakti/v0c29af6f/profilehub

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Get key
  2. Attempt log in
  3. See it fails

(I realize this is probably not useful, but that's really all that happens)

Possible fix


Debug log


The debug log can be found from this link:

I hope I put on the correct verbose mode :-)

Additional context or screenshots (if appropriate)

Installation

  • [ ] I'm using other Netflix Repo
  • [ ] I'm using a different source

Other information


It seems the problem is in Netflix' end, but there are probably some assumptions that are violated here.

Screenshots

Perhaps it should be a better error message in such cases?

Please try generate the file key again with this updated version:
NFAuthenticationKey_Linux_t1.zip

your log has not verbose enabled

(which strikes me as odd), but I give that too.

NFAuthenticationKey not collect credentials and the addon not know your password then you need to input

OK, great, thanks! I'll check if it works!

Yes, now it worked! :+1:

However, the reason it worked now is probably something more embarrassing...: Somehow, my setup of my Norwegian QWERTY keyboard had not taken effect, and one character in the password was mapped to the wrong key... I got the key OK because I obtained that on a different machine, but it failed on the RPi running Kodi.

Perhaps it should be a better error message in such cases?

Did you have a new file for Windows to create the keys?
