Stackskills not working (recaptcha error)

[ahsunchohan]

Hi,

When I try to download a course(https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/348500) at stackskills, I get error.

Cloudflare reCaptcha detected, unfortunately you haven't loaded an anti reCaptcha provider correctly via the 'recaptcha' parameter.

I also tried to login via cookies that I got from the browser after logging in, but that doesn't work either.

Cookie authentication failed!

Hi @ahsunchohan , what is the name of the cookie variable you took from your browser ?
Thanks.

[ahsunchohan]

@barakagb Cookie that I entered is as below with masked(*) numbers.

__cfduid=dbd7973*; ahoy_visitor=14651f32-4ad*; _afid=14651f32-; aid=14651f32-4ad2-4cd2-; ajs_group_id=null; ajs_anonymous_id=%22c5e700d6*; ajs_user_id=34*; wistiaVisitorKey=bdefef6_7370a*; _ga=GA1.2.125*; _gid=GA1.2*; _session_id=42d74bd*; signed_in=true; site_preview=logged_in; __cfruid=6333ed*

I also tried by only providing cookie with variable names:

• __cfduid
• __cfruid

Login to stackskills and copy the _session_id value it is usually a long string.

[ahsunchohan]

@barakagb Thanks. I was giving all cookie with the variable names. Now I just gave the value of _session_id and that started to download the content.

Thanks for a quick reply.

One thing I noticed is, it is downloading video files as .bin. Any quick fix for it?

[barakagb]

That's not normal , it usually download a video format did you login and copy the cookie ?

@barakagb Yes, I downloaded and copy the cookie. It worked, I just renamed .bin to .mp4 and video is working fine.

[barakagb]

I will update the script to automatically convert bin to mp4

@barakagb : When I try to download course(https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/230967)
I get an error:

Collecting course information ...
[-] Error : 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find'

[barakagb]

Have you purchased the course ?
Did the previous course download complete ?

[ahsunchohan]

Yes, of course. It is working for other courses that I have purchased.

[barakagb]

Make sure the url is in this format
https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/348500
not
https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/348500/lectures/03232

[ahsunchohan]

of course, URL that I gave is

https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/230967

The script worked fine for other courses, it is just this course(https://stackskills.com/courses/enrolled/230967) I get the error.

The above are just screenshots to tell that I have purchased the course.

[barakagb]

I think the link has a problem it doesn't even show on the browser.

[ahsunchohan]

strange, as the same link works for me.

[barakagb]

Hi @ahsunchohan , so I have noticed the issue is that its not the page does not display if you haven't logged in . The problem its with the page itself. With that said I am closing this issue feel free to open another issue when you encounter a problem. Cheers.

@barakagb : Thanks for the prompt response and helping me to resolve the issue.
