Hi @drzoidberg33 I value your knowledge and your ability to support very much, so I hope that you can help me solving a problem.

I am still using the legacy agents with several self-written agents. I am in the process of putting a new metadata provider together that will work inside the new structure of the Plex ecosystem.

But after coming back from a business trip from the US, I ran into a problem that my legacy OFDB agent throws an error which looks like I cannot resolve it easily.

I have not touched this agent for years - it just worked.

I am running PM server version 1.42.2.10122 (which does not hide the legacy agents) on QNAP (which gets no official updates due to a problem with QNAP app signing).

This has worked like a charm for months now - until recently. When I checked the PMS Plugin logs of my legacy agent, it says this:

```

I see a failure to get ressource hashes, I see a 404 error, I see certification verify failures. The quicksearch URL referenced works inside a browser, so it’s not that something has changed on the scraping side of the code. Can you please help - even if official support stopped long ago? There must be a cause of this… I am helpless without some insights. Thank you very much for possibly considering this. I know that your time is precious…

The `resourcehash` error you can ignore, it’s a legacy service that hasn’t existed in years.

This is failing with the calls to [https://www.ofdb.de](https://www.ofdb.de)

Why this is happening I’m not sure, as the legacy agents are no longer supported this is not something we’d look into. Maybe somebody from the community could help.

Maybe a German site only, and you are running a VPN?

Thx for clearing this up.

It says: URLError: \<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE\_VERIFY\_FAILED] certificate verify failed (\_ssl.c:727)\>

for the following page:

Requesting ‘[https://www.ofdb.de/quicksearch.php?term=tt1341338](https://www.ofdb.de/quicksearch.php?term=tt1341338)’

When opening that page in Chrome, I see that its valid certificate is from May 14th:

| Ausgestellt am | Donnerstag, 14. Mai 2026 um 02:00:00 |
| --- | --- |
| Gültig bis | Sonntag, 29. November 2026 um 00:59:59 |

This could well be the date and time it stopped working (my business trip started on May 15th).

@dane22 Thank you. It is a German web page, but it is available world-wide. I am not using a VPN _and_ my server would be in Germany, too. This is probably not the cause of the problem.

Ahh…

Then most likely the certificate is using newer Chipers that are not supported by the old legacy Python 2.7

Edit: But no way of knowing for sure, since I can not access the darn site 😉

Would I be able to test that?

Sadly haven’t touched the old Python 2.7 for years, since it was EOL in 20200101  
And since the cert was issued on 20260514, I would bet my life savings on this been the issue

I do not know the code, but if it use the request api, maybe change the code to something like:

`requests.get('https://www.ofdb.de', verify=False)`

And when said, you are sadly beating a dead horse here, so I STRONGLY suggest you look for an alternative instead

Sure, I am working on a NodeJS version of it. Not production ready yet, though.

@rossinior

Does the date it stopped working matches the date of the new certificate?

Well, may match. I haven’t tried matching since May 15th at least… and I don’t know if I tried this on May 14th… but this is a possibility.

Here’s the relevant part of the code:

```auto
import re, urllib

OFDB_BASE_URL = 'https://www.ofdb.de'
#OFDB_SEARCH_URL = '%s/view.php?page=suchergebnis&Kat=IMDb&SText=%%s' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
OFDB_SEARCH_URL = '%s/imdb.php?id=%%s' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
OFDB_QUICKSEARCH_URL = '%s/quicksearch.php?term=%%s' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
OFDB_MOVIE_URL = '%s/film/%%s' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
OFDB_PLOT_URL = '%s/film/%%s/plot/' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
OFDB_VERSION_URL = '%s/fassung/%%s' % (OFDB_BASE_URL)
................

  HTTP.Headers['User-Agent'] = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/135.0.0.0 Safari/537.36'

...........

def get_results(metadata):

  json_ofdb = HTTP.Request(OFDB_QUICKSEARCH_URL % (metadata.id), verify=False, sleep=1.0, cacheTime=CACHE_1WEEK)
  json_str = json_ofdb.content

....

```

The verify keyword was just added after your post, the line looked like this before:

```auto
json_ofdb = HTTP.Request(OFDB_QUICKSEARCH_URL % (metadata.id), sleep=1.0, cacheTime=CACHE_1WEEK)

```

Unfortunately, setting “verify” as a keyword does not work:

```auto
  File "/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexMediaServer/Library/Plex Media Server/Pl
ug-ins/OFDB.bundle/Contents/Code/ __init__.py", line 98, in get_results
    json_ofdb = HTTP.Request(OFDB_QUICKSEARCH_URL % (metadata.id), verify=False,
 sleep=1.0, cacheTime=CACHE_1WEEK)
TypeError: Request() got an unexpected keyword argument 'verify'

```

You are using the old Plex Framework HTTP request, that did not support this

You’ll need to use the native Python 2.7 Request API I guess, but as said multiple times, no longer supported, and will step out of this thread now, sorry

Thx, @dane22 …  
Though the requests module isn’t present in Plex’ python environment and not easy to be installed, I was able to use urllib2’s urlopen request with an ssl context as temporary fix for that agent.

This gives me some time to work on the most actual generation of that agent.

Thank you all for helping.
