I'm seeing a lot of "oauth_problem=nonce_used" replies in error (the nonce is unique)

Jeffrey Friedl

Code that I have not changed in years has suddenly started occasionally garnering "oauth_problem=nonce_used" replies from SmugMug, even though the nonce is absolutely unique. I can't imagine that it's anything other than a newly-introduced bug at SmugMug. How can I help investigate this?

Hi Jeffrey,
I'm sorry to hear that.
Can you check that your code isn't suddenly set to automatically follow redirects without a new nonce getting generated?
If that's not it and you still see this issue, could you send us a specific example of the full request and response you receive to our api contact email?

Thanks,
Sebastian

Thanks, Sebastian, I've sent a note to the API contact address.

I should point out that I'm using _noredirect with all calls, as per an email from Erik Giberti in 2018.

SmugMug tells me that that they might have fixed this error recently... hopefully no one's encountering it anymore.

The Lightroom plugin is still broken for me. AFAICT, nothing has changed in how Smugmug is responding to the API requests issued by the plugin. I can send another log to the api email if that would help. Or if there are additional tests I can try, please let me know.

My reproduction case is: Open Lightroom, pick a photo, right-click to Export, pick the "jf SmugMug" export. The plugin is not authenticated, so I click "Authenticate to Smugmug". This bounces through the browser correctly (and from the log completes the authentication process). Then I get a failure dialog from the plugin. The plugin's log shows {"Code":401,"Message":"oauth_problem=nonce_used"} in response to a request to fetch my album list.

From what I can tell, this is the same behavior as from the beginning of the month.
