Exception: Authentication failed

[yubuyuabc]

I've made a cookies.json, but still error like this picture

[acheong08]

It means you don't have beta access

[yubuyuabc]

In fact, I have new bing chat access

[Irisaka]

The same issue, I have beta access but still get "Authentication failed".

A tip from the Very Large Lettered status quo:
UPDATE 2023/02/14 - Do not use for now while I verify its safety

Now, how long have you waited for that beta access, guys? Any tips to expedite that before they chroot jail it further?

How did you write the cookies.json. Is the format correct? Does it include the _U cookie? What version did you run? Did you point it to the right path?

[acheong08]

My cookie.json:

[
    {
        "domain": "www.bing.com",
        "hostOnly": true,
        "httpOnly": false,
        "name": "_U",
        "path": "/",
        "sameSite": null,
        "secure": false,
        "session": true,
        "storeId": null,
        "value": "..."
    }
]

I see. You didn't set the environment variable

[acheong08]

I'll add more documentation for developer usage

[acheong08]

Set export COOKIE_FILE=/path/to/cookies.json

[superhermes]

My cookie.json:

[
    {
        "domain": "www.bing.com",
        "hostOnly": true,
        "httpOnly": false,
        "name": "_U",
        "path": "/",
        "sameSite": null,
        "secure": false,
        "session": true,
        "storeId": null,
        "value": "..."
    }
]

The json that is copied with the extension in the description looks like this.

[acheong08]

Does _U show up anywhere there?

[acheong08]

And the issue here is that you didn't set the cookie path as environment variable

[acheong08]

Set export COOKIE_FILE=/path/to/cookies.json

^ This is the solution

[Irisaka]

Confused.

[Irisaka]

I can get cookies, but cannot pass authentication.

[acheong08]

• Authentication failed caused by 302 redirect #48

Found the issue. You might want to check it

[acheong08]

Closing and moving over to the other issue

[acheong08]

ReOpening

We got new info that people with the KievRPSSecAuth cookie cannot use the program for some reason.

[Irisaka]

I get the KievRPSSecAuth cookie, maybe this is the problem. In depression...

[acheong08]

Oh wait there was bug in release

[acheong08]

Try https://github.com/acheong08/EdgeGPT/releases/tag/0.0.42

[acheong08]

And send the error logs

[Irisaka]

After updated, back to the original problem.

[acheong08]

Can you show the bit before that?

[acheong08]

It shows the error code and response text

[Irisaka]

Oh, sorry, I'm not queit familiar to this.

[acheong08]

Thanks I will look into this

This may be caused by a banned region, such as China. This can be solved by adding this to the header。Or use proxy.

Exactly. People can use extensions in browser such as ModHeader to set "x-forwarded-for": "8.8.8.8".
However we do not know how to set it in a python script.
