translation-server issue: stuck on cookie consent page

Atester

I tried ZoteroBib and it worked great. I then tried a local installation, but the translation-server gets stuck on a cookie consent page while ZoteroBib gets the actual citation data.

When trying locally for this URL

https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/23/healthjoy-launches-its-revamped-employee-benefits-assistance-platform/

it parses the data from

https://consent.yahoo.com/collectConsent?sessionId=3_cc-session_cffba638-6700-41fd-8a34-162f783a91f5&lang=en-US&inline=false

instead of the initial page.

What can I do to get the correct citation data like on ZoteroBib?

Works fine for me with latest version from GitHub or Docker Hub.

curl -v -d "https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/23/healthjoy-launches-its-revamped-employee-benefits-assistance-platform/" -H "Content-Type: text/plain" 127.0.0.1:1969/web

If it's not working for you, you'll need to review the debug output to see why it's not working.

Thanks for getting back to me. I now tried it with the docker image, and I get stuck with the same output.

curl -v -d "https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/23/healthjoy-launches-its-revamped-employee-benefits-assistance-platform/" -H "Content-Type: text/plain" 127.0.0.1:1969/web

I guess that once I click a button on the consent page, it gets stored in a cookie and for subsequent visits to the page the cookie then allows me to go directly there. But how do I get the cookie into the translation server, and why does it work for you out of the box?

No, your browser's cookie store has nothing to do with translation-server.

I'd guess that you're outside of the US. If you're in Europe, thank your MEPs.
