DB CLIENTVERSION error

[Daniel Kilimnik]

I noticed, that unfortunately, the library integration for the DB Client does not work anymore.
I tried requesting locations and arrivals.
The response from the api is always

{"ver": "1.16", "ext": "DB.R19.04.a", "lang": "deu", "id": "", "err": "CLIENTVERSION", "cInfo": {"code": "VD"}, "svcResL": []}

I am not sure what client version they are referring to

I also noticed a broken connection to Hafas with a slightly different error:

File "hafas.py", line 18, in departures
    abfahrten = client.departures(station=client.locations(start)[0].id,date=datetime.datetime.now(),max_trips=10,products={'long_distance_express':                                                  True,'regional_express': True,'regional': True,'suburban': True,'bus': False,'ferry': False,'subway': False,'tram': False,'taxi': False},direction=                                                 client.locations(ziel)[0].id)

Oh yes, same problem as @asraelvudogel here. :(

hi, one of the maintainers of the library here. I'm actually surprised that people want to use pyhafas :) I'll do some work on it and publish a new version soon!

[Daniel Kilimnik]

As far as I saw, it's the only python library for hafas.

Yeah I also didn't found another one. Is there a way to display more details on the error? I get the same error sadly...

[ACH1980]

I'm struggling with reproducing this in my browser as I can't access the API at all atm, I'm trying to work around this, but it's not that easy for proprietary APIs. Sadly in germany GTFS-Realtime isn't very widespread, so I have to use Hafas 😞

It's good, that there is a lib at least - if I´d have to write my own using the information from PTE it would be pretty hard...

[Stefan Kahlich]

After upgrading to v0.3.1 the GeneralHafasError has gone. HaFAS is responding again as expected. Thanks very much :)

[Leona Maroni]

As @StefanKahlich already mentioned: @n0emis published a release 0.3.1 fixing the main problem of pyhafas. Still hafas changed over the last 2 years, and pyhafas is also missing some features (e.g. pricing). These will be kept tracked in #20.
