I am getting the same error as well, I presume its something going on the server side and hopefully a temporary thing?

Weird server error (/ possibly blocking?) thing.

Flaresolverr proxy and browser cache should still work, but the mirror sites are reported to not work now.

That would indicate that you requested an Internet connected teapot to brew coffee.

See Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol (RFC2324) for more information and 418 I'm a teapot.

You can also take a look at google.com/teapot.

FWIW I just cleared my Ao3 specific data, logged out, and logged back in and now I have successfully used FFF to download new and update stories at last (for today). Ao3 can be so flaky it might be a coincidence, but easy enough to try.

I had the same issue earlier today, but I tried again 10 minutes ago without changing anything and it worked just fine. Might be worth trying again!

Hi! I've been consistently getting a 403 URL forbidden error when trying to update any ao3 fics, I did try updating to the latest test version but the issue still occurs so I think it was unrelated. The problem occurs no matter what update mode I select

I do have the personal ini set to my browser_cache_path, and the user name and password are set up too. Other settings are as follows:

[archiveofourown.org]
is_adult:true
open_pages_in_browser:true
use_view_full_work:true
use_browser_cache:true
use_archiveofourown_gay:true

I'm not sure what else to try if anyone has recommendations for what to look at/change, thank you!

AO3 is being weird again. Past experience suggests it will calm down again after a while.

As I said just a bit ago:

From the various reports, IMO, we're seeing random server issues. So I doubt very much any one "solution" is going to work for everyone. Because random.
