Error loading protonvpn Script

[majaidi]

Describe the bug

I got the following error randomly when it was working fine. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall a few times but with no luck.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/bin/protonvpn", line 11, in load_entry_point('protonvpn-cli==2.2.4', 'console_scripts', 'protonvpn')() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/protonvpn_cli/cli.py", line 73, in main cli() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/protonvpn_cli/cli.py", line 129, in cli connection.dialog() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/protonvpn_cli/connection.py", line 79, in dialog if not features[feat] in country_features: KeyError: 8

The way I fixed it was going onto the script is /usr/bin/protonvpn and change the version to 2.2.6. Please let me know if there is a bug that is persisting in this way after installing or upgrading.

Thanks

I just encountered the same bug. It seems like the CLI is ready for features 0, 1, 2 and 4 (https://github.com/ProtonVPN/linux-cli-community/blob/c3f8dffad7861e57e460f2bf817cbdfbfc433420/protonvpn_cli/connection.py#L60), but the API started returning features 8, 9, 12 and potentially others. The fix for me was to change features[*] in connection.py into features.get(*), which defaults to returning None instead of throwing an exception.

In which versions is this experienced ?

[krzykro2]

2.2.6

[kylekatarnls]

Thank you, I will inspect this. Basically our API is supposed to filter any unsupported feature when it properly receive the version number with the request headers so it does not fall out of the list. I suspect the version header might be lost somewhere. You can confirm you're on the stable 2.2.6 realease (e.g. not on a fork or modified version)?

$ sudo pip3 install protonvpn-cli --upgrade
Requirement already up-to-date: protonvpn-cli in /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages (2.2.6)
$ protonvpn --version
ProtonVPN-CLI v2.2.6

protonvpn --version ProtonVPN-CLI v2.2.6

funny, just paid for plus, should have tried it first.

Is it possible you have an old servers list in cache? Can you try to refresh it with:

protonvpn refresh

And tell if you get rid of this error?

[eoghan-kenny]

@kylekatarnls protonvpn refresh fixed issue for me - thanks!

[kylekatarnls]

Glad to hear :) I hope it was the same issue for other people in the thread. The thing is we add new servers, have to move the infra regularly so running protonvpn refresh from time to time (when using the community CLI which does not do it automatically) is needed.

And indeed install/uninstall does not clear the user cache where this list is saved.
