I know I'm beginning to sound a bit like a broken record - but I've just pushed a new update with better logging - it should log the response from the API when the request fails now.

If you run it again after updating, it might give us better insight into why the requests are failing.

[samcro1967]

Here is an updated log file.

https://api.preguntados.com/api/users/90837342/games/7905540034/answers failed with code 400. {"message"=>"Unexpected amount of answers. Size: 1. Expected: 6 or 7", "code"=>418}

I'd be interested to see what the API is returning. I've added a --debug flag when you start the application that will print more details, if you wouldn't mind running again. Or you could check the API directly:

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.preguntados.com/api/login' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "email": "<your email>",
    "password": "<your password>",
    "language": "en"
}'

This will return a session token, which you can provide to the next API request:

curl --location --request GET 'https://api.preguntados.com/api/users/90837342/games/7905540034' \
--header 'Cookie: ap_session=<session>'

It's the response to that API that I'm interested in seeing.

Here is an updated log file after pulling the latest code this morning.

You need to run with the --debug flag, e.g. bin/trivia-crack bot -e $EMAIL -p $PASSWORD -n -f --debug. If you are running via docker then you'll have to update the run command in the Dockerfile to add that flag, and then rebuild the docker image.

Oops. I misunderstood. Sorry about that. Below is the output with the --debug flag.

OK, I believe I may have solved the issue. Can you try again with the latest code?

[samcro1967]

It has been running for a few hours now and I am not seeing any errors.
