Register fails with "Bad response 500"

Open knallcharge opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

I have tried to register a phone number with signal-cli, I'm required to provide a CAPTCHA which I successfully retrieved, but the answer I'm getting (tried with different numbers) is always this: Failed to register: [500] Bad response: 500

Any help is appreciated as this is all I'm getting, I have no other information about what might go wrong ...

I have checked the source code for the error and found the words in RegisterCommand.java, so I guess the error must be a NonNormalizedPhoneNumberException or IOErrorException. I checked the number in several examples and it should be correct, so what would the IOError "Bad response: 500" mean? I have to use a captcha, could this error mean that there's something wrong with that (expired, wrong format, plain wrong)?

(just discovered discussions, taking this topic there, will close this when resolved)

There have been some changes to the register code in signal-cli and the Signal-Server, please open a new issue if the problem appears with the latest version.
