Login failed: Error: # 1008

[SalimTerryLi]

That was displayed on the button of window. Is current login auth out-of-date?

[Erlandys]

Try to test now.

[matheusfillipe]

I have this error now with the version released just now.

[Erlandys]

Does the system tries to go further, or it stucks at some point at authentication?
Those errors are from parsing date, which is not necessary, I'll try to investigate, to not throw this error.

[matheusfillipe]

It just gets stuck there

[alejandroua]

Having the same #1008 error on the login button with the current versions of UE4 and this script. Progress bar is showing 60%

[Erlandys]

Hello, can you try with this? (Do not forget to rename .zip to .jar)
UnrealEngineLauncher.zip
@alejandroua

[alejandroua]

Hi @Erlandys , Thanks for the patch!
This time was better, I got through to the captcha (I had to input email instead of login).
My Chrome browser refuses to ask for captcha and I had to use Opera VPN to get it asked. But then I could not track the request you mention in the instructions. Alas, I might not be knowledgeable enough in networking/browsers. Perhaps the type of captcha I've encountered is something different - I had to rotate animals :)

[matheusfillipe]

I have a different annoying issue with this. The captcha window that is popping is super small and not resizing.

Sometimes the launcher itself has that behaviour. I am using KDE. I will try opening that on i3wm and we will see.

[Erlandys]

@alejandroua hi, you do not need to perform captcha, all you have to do is login, you may have already performed captcha before, the thing is to find the request I mentioned in description of captcha form. Add here screenshot from network requests on login. i will check it (some browsers may show not full url, but only last part)
@matheusfillipe I will try to launch KDE VM and try to open it. If you cant fill that place, you can add bda and user browser to sqlite database (data.db), global_variables table,
name - bda
value - base64 decoded bda value from request
name - user_browser
value - userbrowser from request

[Erlandys]

@alejandroua thats the request you need to be looking for:

[Erlandys]

@matheusfillipe try this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52519777/java-swing-app-looks-tiny-on-high-dpi-screen-when-it-should-be-scaled-to-normal

[alejandroua]

@Erlandys Wow, I'm kind of close. I had to enable 'Persist logs' in Firefox networking since the login page was redirecting instantly to the account page. Now I enter bda and userbrowser data into the form and it just loops - asking for bda/browser again.

[Erlandys]

@alejandroua try with this:
UnrealEngineLauncher.zip
Ps. rename .zip to .jar
If this will fail, can you contact me via email 'erlandys56@gmail.com'?

[Erlandys]

@matheusfillipe if you will try, try with the newest version pushed to git.

[godofdream]

I'm trying with the Version in Develop Branch, and when filling BDA and useragent I'm getting:
