Description

On the latest Arch packaged version of Jackett (but it was so since a week, I only got to report it now) trying to add the rutracker.org indexer returns "Request to Jackett server failed" with the following output log:

Are you able to connect to the site with a browser, search and download on the same system and network?

[BachoSeven]

Sorry for missing that, I can only connect to rutracker.net but not to the main mirror. The site is not down as I could get it working with a VPN in Sweden for example, and then Jackett works.

My issue then is that I cannot even get to the configuration of the indexer before trying to access it; it would be nice if I could, so I might select/insert a mirror which works with the same API... Do you think that could be implemented?

[ilike2burnthing]

When you click Configure (wrench icon), change the Site Link to .net instead, then enter the necessary information.

If it's a straight mirror, and not a clone, then there shouldn't be an issue.

Let me know if that works.

[BachoSeven]

That is exactly the issue, so to clarify:

1. I open jackett localhost on my browser
2. I click on "Add Indexer"
3. I find rutracker && click on the configure button
4. I get the aforementioned output & log.

[ilike2burnthing]

Ah kk.

Can you use your VPN to set it up initially, change to .net, enter your details and click Okay, disable your VPN, and test the indexer?

[BachoSeven]

Oki so that ended up working, thanks for the workaround! Not sure if this needs to be addressed anyways, so I won't close it right away.

[ilike2burnthing]

It's similar to #7849 but in this you can't even access configuration.

@garfield69 @ngosang @cadatoiva any ideas on what a potential solution might be? Quick summary is that if a user cannot access the default URL for rutracker (possibly also other indexers), clicking configuration will fail, preventing them from adding a working mirror.

[garfield69]

not quite the same as 7849 because this is not a Cardigann indexer, but one written in C#.
It's possible this indexer has not had its code updated to handle a login-page-fetch-failed handler like the one added to the Cardigann processor for 7849 to allow it to present the config page despite the error.
