I have the same issue. The content of my edx-error.log:

Expecting value: line 2 column 1 (char 1)Expecting value: line 2 column 1 (char 1)

Environment: Ubuntu 20.04LTS. I have my credentials storred in ~/.edxauth.

Same error here

if res.json().get('success') is True: at l. 144 in lib.py does not work properly when it is a 403 response. Also getting a 403 response when using correct credentials indicates that there is another problem with the login procedure.

I am not sure exactly what is the problem, I think it it has something to do with the JSON configuration and package handling like the build folder, however, I created a new file, also i have filled the .edxauth file with my email and password, and copied this code which was in the main.py to it and run it.

from edxdownloader.utils import * if __name__ == '__main__': main()

then from the command line: python3.8 file.py. run the command while you are at the folder after you manually download it using git
