Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Prowlarr fails to login to PotUK which is running XenForo. I was suspecting the code path hadn't been exercised in Prowlarr as the entry has yet to be called out by name anywhere (thus suspecting I'm the first user). I've just confirmed this still works in Jackett, so it's 100% Prowlarr at this point.

After speaking with some kind folks on Discord I've opened a new issue from the previous one: https://github.com/Prowlarr/Indexers/issues/191

Specifically the issue seems to be Prowlarr doesn't expect the login page to return 403 - but that's just what I'm seeing as an end-user.

Expected Behavior

Feature parity with Jackett, be able to enable PotUK which is a listed indexer.

Steps To Reproduce

add PotUK as an indexer.

Environment

- OS: Linux
- Prowlarr: 0.3.0.1755
- k8s Install: true
- Using Reverse Proxy: false
- Browser: lynx

Not sure, I had to move back to Jackett because there's no caching on Prowlarr.

I'll need an invite code to try and fix this.

Appears to still be an issue with v1.2.2.2699. If an invite is still needed to resolve please let me know.

Ignore this, Watchtower had crapped out and Prowlarr wasn't updated to latest. 🤦🏼‍♂️ All good in v1.3.2.3006.
