I meet the similar problem yesterday, the error is 404, but I go through plugins installation, I meet 404 when list questions in leetcode-cli, it should be related to your vpn or shadowsocks, finally I didn't solve it. Now I use the leetcode extension in clion IDE,
just login in, nothing to wrong, you can start use.

I don't know why, as I'm not familar with js, I don't know how to find reason, so other ide may be a good choice.

@wnykuang get your point, let me have a check.

[yihong0618]

@wnykuang did you use proxy?

[wnykuang]

@yihong0618 nope, I didn't change any settings about the internet.

Could you open the URL?

No, but its not the 404 url problem, github.js is the third party plugin which would not install usually, I have tried three different environment but I didn't locate your problem yet.

@yihong0618
interesting.

Do you need any more information?
like some npm call or so?

Yes what my guess is you use vscode-leetcode or leetcode-cli before and installed these third-party plugins maybe you are not notice, am I right?

@yihong0618
I have used leetcode-cli for years until last year I cannot log in anymore.
Do you know how to reset/delete the plugins?

[yihong0618]

@wnykuang
If so, can you make a test that remove the cache, use rm -rf ~/.lc/ and try to login again.

[wnykuang]

@yihong0618

after rm -rf ~/.lc/ the leetcode-vscode works!

Thank you!

My thinking is that use use third-party github.js and it saves in cache, and this time need to update caused these error.

@yihong0618 @zry656565 Seems that we need a way to make sure users are in a fresh env when they first use the extension. Like store some flags in the extension's global storage. If it's first time using the extension, clean the cache dir before activate
