{u'error_code': 71, u'result': u'FAIL', u'error': u'RPC_CALL_FAIL 400: INPUT_FETCH_ERROR'} on set_profile_photo

[sento93]

The problem

set_profile_photo returns {u'error_code': 71, u'result': u'FAIL', u'error': u'RPC_CALL_FAIL 400: INPUT_FETCH_ERROR'} after uploads image

Your environment

python 2.7.6, last pytg and Elementary OS (Ubuntu).

Steps to reproduce

sender = Sender(host, port) sender.set_profile_photo(path) The path is correct, if the path is incorrect returns other error.

Expected behaviour

return True and update the profile picture

Actual behaviour

return {u'error_code': 71, u'result': u'FAIL', u'error': u'RPC_CALL_FAIL 400: INPUT_FETCH_ERROR'}

Looks like the problem actually lies in Telegram CLI. I get exactly the same error there.

Please check the command in the cli (--json flag). If you need help, post the log output please. How to enable Debug

[sento93]

In the cli returns the same error.

The complete log is:

DEBUG:pytg.sender:Parsing set_profile_photo: Argument /home/sento/a.jpg - <file> (needed)
DEBUG:pytg.sender:Sending command >[disable_preview] set_profile_photo '/home/sento/a.jpg'
<
DEBUG:pytg.sender:Socket Connected.
DEBUG:pytg.sender:All Sent.
{u'error_code': 71, u'result': u'FAIL', u'error': u'RPC_CALL_FAIL 400: INPUT_FETCH_ERROR'}

[luckydonald]

So the command [disable_preview] set_profile_photo '/home/sento/a.jpg' fails? Does set_profile_photo '/home/sento/a.jpg'fail too?

[sento93]

Yes

[s-londono]

The problem can be fixed in Telegram CLI, concretly in: https://github.com/vysheng/tgl

In order to fix the problem, remove the duplicated line: out_int (CODE_photos_upload_profile_photo);

At tgl/queries.c, method static void send_avatar_end, case TGL_PEER_USER, line 1865. Or just check pullrequest: vysheng/tgl#105

Then just re-make Telegram-CLI.

[sento93]

Thank you very much @s-londono this solves the problem

[luckydonald]

Maybe I should maintain a fork with all the needed pull requests, as @vysheng seem to have not enough time anymore to work on it or even merge existing pull requests...
