Hello,

A member of ASF has said that it sounds like this is being caused by a stale authentication cookie. Try deleting the file .bulk_download_cookiejar.txt from your home directory and restart the script. You'll be prompted to log in and this will load a fresh cookie."

Please let us know if this help does not help.

Thank you!

I have the same problem. I have tried the suggested solution (delete .bulk_download_cookiejar.txt from my home directory and restart the script), but it still doesn't work.
