Hello, Same error happened when I tried to authorize the application. It isreally simple and easy to solve the problem: you have to change the protocol ( https:// to http:// ) in the browser address bar while leaving the other parts of the callback URL intact. Just delete the "s" and press enter.

@cutedaffodil Bro can you help :) ?

ucsendre commented 4 years ago

I will try to reproduce the error.

Did you use the default settings after successful login? It works fine for me on this PC too. image

ucsendre commented 4 years ago

Do you have any third party safety software (firewall, malware or virus scanner) installed on your PC? Try uninstall and re-install. Open the browser and log in to your flickr account before starting installation. The app will open a new browser tab for the authorization, but you will be logged in on that tab too. Delete the "s" from https on the callback page as above, hit enter and go back to the app. Click login, select default settings and it should be fine.

@goxr3plus - there is something going on at your end causing this issue - like @ucsendre we can't see it at our end.

@ucsendre - thanks for helping out with the replacing of https with http - looks like something changed at flickr's end - the app is suggesting to redirect back to an http://localhost... URL, but after login they're sending the users to an https://localhost... one

A similar problem occurred when authenticating on Firefox on Ubuntu. Firefox provided a more specific message which may help: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG. I confirm that the workaround of changing https to http worked here also. Versions: flickr downloadr beta v3.3.4.1, Firefox v. 86.0, Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS 64-bit Firefox SSL Error
