Unfortunately error message again when calling up channels

[bjoern-vh]

Since the last weekend I cannot cal channels any more. I have to xxxxx out the domain because it is my self hosted Invidious instance but the same happens with the public instances.

I get this error:

I hope it's just a small thing and you can solve the problem.

Many thanks in advance :-)

Since the last weekend I cannot cal channels any more. I have to xxxxx out the domain because it is my self hosted Invidious instance but the same happens with the public instances.

some public instances respond correctly (right now):

• https://invidious.projectsegfau.lt/api/v1/channels/UC4zcMHyrT_xyWlgy5WGpFFQ/videos?page=1&region=DE
• https://invidious.tiekoetter.com/api/v1/channels/UC4zcMHyrT_xyWlgy5WGpFFQ/videos?page=1&region=DE

can you check in a browser what your instance returns?

(I'm abroad right now and don't have access to my computer, so I'll do what I can, but won't be able to commit anything till next week, unfortunately)

[lekma]

also what version of invidious server are you running?

[bjoern-vh]

You have put me on the right track. My server version was probably too old. After an update it works now again.

I have checked the other instances again. These give a different error message and do not run. On another computer in the browser everything is displayed correctly.

I had installed and activated OpenVPN in my Kodi for testing purposes. However, I did not get it uninstalled cleanly again. I also have problems with other addons. My own Invidious instance is running now though. If I have time, I will reinstall Kodi.

For now, the issue has been resolved. Thanks for your immediate feedback and sorry for the false alarm :-)
