403 error

[joaovaz]

Ey there, thank you for this scraper. UnfortunatelyI was trying trying to use it in the new rarbg site (https://www.rarbg.is), just changed the domain, and it failed, giving a 403 error. Any idea about it? Thanks!
Best
Joao

Hey,
I'll try to look into it in the next few days. Thanks for the heads up.

It seems like they have changed the image src... grabbing it (or accessing it via the browser) leads to blank page, making the scraper unable to solve the Captcha.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

EDIT: It's possible to get the image using Selenium (screenshot of the image coordinates?) but I really can't do that at the moment. Feel free to submit a PR

@evyatarmeged It only lets you make a request to the image, that is, it would have to be saved in the first request and not to make another HTTP request to obtain it.

I will be working on this to see if I can solve it.

I can think of two solutions with Selenium

• Deactivate that the image is loaded, and then make the only possible request in the get_captcha
• Get the image from cache without making a new request

@marcofbb awesome, looking forward to your PR 👍
