404 Not Found for dynamicRules.json on startup (Version 3.2.4)
### Issue Description:
Problem Description:
When starting ofscraper (version 3.2.4), the application consistently fails to initialize due to a 404 Not Found error when attempting to retrieve the dynamicRules.json file from GitHub. This prevents any further operation, including authentication and content downloads.
Full Error Traceback:
Steps to Reproduce:
- Activate the
ofscraper_envvirtual environment. - Run
ofscraper.exefrom the command line. - The error appears immediately upon startup before any menu prompts.
Observations & Troubleshooting:
- Manual URL Check: I have manually tried accessing the problematic URL
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/deviint/onlyfans-dynamic-rules/main/dynamicRules.jsonin a web browser (Firefox). This also returns a404 Not Founderror, confirming that the file is not available at that location. ofscraperVersion:ofscraperversion 3.2.4 is installed.- Update Attempt: Running
pip install --upgrade ofscraperconfirms thatofscraperis already at the latest version (Requirement already satisfied: ofscraper in ... (3.2.4)). auth.json: Myauth.jsonfile has been manually corrected to include complete and up-to-dateuser_agentandcookieinformation, but this issue occurs before authentication is even attempted.
Expected Behavior:
ofscraper should start successfully and proceed to the main menu without encountering external file download errors.
Environment:
- Operating System: Windows 10
ofscraperVersion: 3.2.4- Python Version: Python 3.10
- Browser used for auth extraction: Firefox
Additional Context:
This appears to be an issue with an outdated or incorrect URL for dynamicRules.json within the ofscraper codebase, as the file is genuinely not found on GitHub.
Not to be rude but you obviously didn't read any of the documentation. That version you have is extremely old and not supported anymore (latest ofscraper version is 3.13.8). You also have an unsupported version of python (recommend version is 3.11.6).
Closing the issue dynamic rules are updated in newer version or manually changeable
