True is that i've also exported cookies using plugin. And even seems that your script recognizes it's netscape format. But it throws error for some exact cookie string (mentioned in error cookie line is 6th from all the cookies in file. So I suppose to think that first 5 was OK). And I can't understand why:

The error message indicates a line in cookie.txt should have 7 fields. From your log the 5th field (expiry time) is missing.

But if if cookie expiration value is "session". in this case expiration will be empty. So it means that cookie.txt can't have cookies with expire = session

My cookies.txt uses 0 as the expiry time for session cookies. A webpage [1] states the same rule. However, I can't find a standard/RFC for that.
