I tried to update a single fic (with/without VPN) from AO3 and I got 525 error for both cases, as well.

Yesterday I managed to run the update for 5/6 fics at once without errors (the whole process was just slow).

If I'm not messing up, I use this under [archiveofourown.org] in personal.ini to make a ToC.

Code:

## AO3 chapters have 'date' available for each chapter.
## These can be used with custom output (see
## https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFare/wiki/CustomOutput ) or with
## chapter_title_*_pattern settings.
## Examples for html & epub:
#<html>
#tocpage_entry:
# <a href="#section${index04}">${chapter}</a> ${date}<br />
#<epub>
tocpage_entry:
 <a href="file${index04}.xhtml">${chapter}</a> ${date}<br /><br />

It works for chaptered fics, but does anyone knows if there is a way to force Calibre/FFF to make a ToC even for one-shot fanfics, please?

(also, +1 with a 525 error on anthologies)

I finally managed to update my anthologies by increasing the "slow_down_sleep_time" in ini, it takes ages to start and finish but I didn't get any 525 errors!

I also had it go away, though no changes.

I've been unable to download anything with FFF since Wednesday (though the one time I asked it only to update if there were new chapters was the only time I didn't get a 525 error). I changed this setting in .ini from 6.5 to 10, and it now takes awhile, but it works. 10 was a number I chose randomly. So thanks for mentioning that setting!

What worked for me as a work around for the 525 errors, add in the personal.ini:

browser_cache_path:C:\Users\...

under [archiveofourown.org] in epub:
use_browser_cache:true
use_browser_cache_only:true
open_pages_in_browser:true

and comment your login and password out, if you included that in the personal.ini. If you are logged in in browser that causes an error message.

With that you can set sleeptime to 0. I only get errors with anthologies with more then 40 fics then. If that happens, wait a few seconds and then reload those pages in browser and start download again.

The only thing not working with that for some reason are pictures. Those you need to add manually in the epub.

Re: CloudFlare

I don't think there's anything specific we can do about it. Either it's CF doing it's thing, or it's a problem between CF and AO3, if cats' link is relevant.

FFF defaults currently has:

Code:

## AO3 is blocking people more aggressively.  If you download fewer
## stories less often you can likely get by with reducing this sleep.
slow_down_sleep_time:2

I can increase that if a larger number works better. Personally, I haven't seen this.

I don't usually recommend BrowserCache for AO3 because it doesn't work with login, but if it works...

FFF only writes a TOC if there's more than one chapter--that's currently hard coded.

I could add an option to force TOC generation if that's something that's useful to people. I'd need to review what it might do to epub update and anthology generation.

Error log reported here show this specifically failing during login.

Does it work better without always_login:true? Or maybe it's worse on login-required stories?

Still nothing we can do to fix it, but it may be possible to avoid more.

Not sure if this may apply to other adapters, but found the bug I mentioned a few posts back (using current test version in CLI mode makes adding numerous debug calls a bit easier)

Simple version: Stories that contain the word "author" in the Title break the "authfrom" code.

(This is relative to: adapter_storiesonlinenet.py around line 216)
Specifically, when the check of div "top-header" finds the word "author":

"if authfrom is None or 'author' not in str(authfrom)"

(actually from story title) it uses that for processing the "authfrom" to set "autorID", "authorUrl", etc... When in fact, those values do not exist in the "top-header" so later on when findStoryRow loops the authorUrl[0].. it is blank... and fails with "list index out of range".

Testing by forcing it to use the soup.find on 'footer' instead, will correctly process and set values.

I looked back and the other story that failed (that I had not dived into issue on) also contained the word "author" in title..

SFW test story: SOL /s/56768 "the-author"
