I had the same error. What I did was to copy the cauth value again and change it in the coursera-dl.conf file and with that I could download my course. I think this value changes constantly as it was different from the one I previously used to download another course.

I've been getting the cauth value this way (using Microsoft Edge, I don't know if it is diferent in other browsers):

1. Log into your coursera account
2. While being on the dashboard right click and choose Inspect
3. Go to the Aplications tab
4. Click the https://www.coursera.org/ option under the Cookies section
5. Write Cauth in the search tab
6. Copy the cauth value

I've tried this, but it's still not working after using Cauth value.
