Malformed request error

Same issue here, anyone know how to fix? Some more details from the dispenser log here:

Adapted from my comment at matlink/gplaycli#217 (comment) :

This recent issue is probably due to a change in how Google validates authentication requests. See NoMore201/googleplay-api#93.

The token dispenser uses the play-store-api library to make the request to the Google servers. The "good" way to fix it is to fix the play-store-api library (I made a PR that needs to be merged), then update the token dispenser repository to use the newer play-store-api library.

If you're in a hurry, you can clone my fixed play-store-api version, mvn install it so that it replaces the play store api library in your Maven repository, then force recompile your token dispenser with mvn clean package.

Edit: You also need to update the play-store-api dependency in the pom.xml to 0.44.2 (the latest version).

@delthas, thanks for those instructions. I'm giving this a try. You mention running mvn install on your fixed play-store-api version, but that doesn't work since there is no pom.xml in play-store-api. What I did was I ran mvn install:install-file -Dfile=play-store-api-0.44.2.jar -DgroupId=com.github.yeriomin -DartifactId=play-store-api -Dversion=0.44.2 -Dpackaging=jar on the jar file, after building it using gradlew as per the instructions in the repo. Is that correct, or was there a better way?

It's difficult to verify that mvn install or mvn clean package on token-dispenser actually uses the modified play-store-api and not the one from Yeriomin or Matlink (I'm using Matlink's token-dispenser fork that you worked on as well).
